[verse]
D (w/riff 3) E7
Jemima Surrender, I'm gonna give it to you,
G Ain't no pretender, gonna A7ride in my canoe.
D G F (w/riff 3)
If I were a barker in a girly show,
D Tell ya Gwhat I'd do,F I'd Dlock the door, Gtear my shirt and A7let my river flow.
Oh, Goh, Sweet Jemima wont'cha Emcome out tonight'
The groundG is so warm and the moonA7 is so bright!D
[rpt intro]
Jemima Surrender, I'm gonna give it to you,
I'll bring over my Fender
And I'll play all night for you.
There's a bird on my head
And his mouth won't talk,
You know he laughs just like a goose,
But looks like a hawk
Jemima, you know what I'm try'n to say,
Meet me in front and we'll fly away.
Solo

D Csus2 G/B A7
FYou can change your G name
You can find a newC walk
You can change aE lock, its all the same
FYou don't have to giveG out
If you'll only giveC in
You can jump and shout but can't youA see girl, that I'm bound to win
[riff 2 into verse]
[rpt verse]
Jemima Surrender, I'm gonna give it to you,
Ain't no pretender, gonna see my tattoo;
I hand you my rod and you hand me that line,
That's what you do, now, we ain't doing much fishin'
Or drinkin' any wine.
Sweet Jemima, if I were king
I'd fix you up with a diamond ring.
