[Intro 1]
[D][G][D]

[Verse 1]
I was [D]talkin' to Chuck
in his [G]Genghis Khan suit
And his wiz[D]ard's [G]hat[D][G]
[D]He spoke of his movie and [G]how he was
makin' a new [D]sound [G]track[D]
And [G]then we [C]spoke of kid
[G]s on t[D]he coast
And dif[C]ferent types of [G]organic [D]soap
And the way [C]suicides [G]don't leave notes,
[D]Then we spoke of Lorai[A]ne,

[Verse 2]
always back to Lorraine
[A]
I [D]was speakin' to Bill who was [G]given
to pills [D]and small racing [G]cars[D]
[G]He had giv[D]en them up since his las[G]t crack-up
had had carried [D]him too [G]far[D]
Then we [C]spoke of [G]the movies and [D]verse
And the [C]way an act[G]ress held her [D]purse
And the way [C]life at [G]times can get worse,
[D]Then we spoke of Lorai[A]ne,
always back to Lorraine

[Verse 3]
[D]Ah, she's a wild [G]child,
[Bm]and nobo[D]dy can get at he[G]r[D]
She's a wild [G]child, oh,
and [D]nobody can get [G]to her[Bm]
Sleepin' out on [G]the street,

[Verse 4]
[D]oh, livin' all [G]alone
[D]Without a house or a hom[G]e and
then she asked you, [F#m]please,
Hey, baby,
can I have [A]some spare change
Oh, can I break your [D]heart ?

[Verse 5]
She's a wild [G]child,
[D]she's a wild child

[Interlude 1]
[G][D][G][D][G]

[Verse 6]
I was [D]talkin' to Betty [G]about her
auditions, how they [D]made her [G]ill[D]
[G]But lif[D]e in the theater, is cer[G]tainly fraught
With many [D]spills and chills
[G]But[D] she'd [C]come down
af[G]ter some [D]wine
Which is [C]what hap[G]pens
most of [D]the time
Then we [C]sat an[G]d both spoke in rhymes
[D]Till we spoke of Loraine,
[A]ah, always back to Lorraine

[Verse 7]
[A]
I was [D]talking to Ed who'd been re[G]ported
dead by mu[D]tual [G]fri[D]ends[G]
He [D]thought it was funny that [G]I had
no money [D]to spend on [G]him[D]
So we [C]both shared a [G]piece
of sweet [D]cheese
And [C]sang of our [G]lives and [D]our dreams
And how thing[C]s can come
[G]apart at the seams
[D]And we talk of Lor[A]raine,
always back to Lorraine

[Verse 8]
[D]She's a wild chi[G]ld, oh,
[D]and nobody can get at [G]her
[D]She's a wild chi[G]ld, oh,
and [D]nobody can get [G]to [Bm]her

[Verse 9]
Sleepin' out on [G]the street,
[D]oh, livin' all [G]alone
[D]Without a house or a hom[G]e and
then she asked you, [F#m]please,
Oh, baby, can I have [A]some spare change
Now can I break your [D]heart?"

[Verse 10]
She's a wild [G]child, [D]she's a wild child
