Norwegian Wood

1
I once had a girl
b7 4 1
Or should I say she once had me
She showed me her room
b7 4 1
Isn’t it good Norwegian wood

1m
She asked me to stay
4
And she told me to sit anywhere
1m
I looked all around
4 5
And I noticed there wasn’t a chair

I sat on a rug biding my time
Drinking her wine
We talked until two and then she said
It’s time for bed

She told me she worked
In the morning and started to laugh
I told her I didn’t
And crawled off to sleep in the bath

And when I awoke I was alone
This bird had flown
So I built a fire
Isn’t it good Norwegian wood
