        Note:   This song uses a capo at the second fret.
                The chords shown are the shapes used with
                the capo.  So, where an Em is played, it is
                actually an F#m without the capo.  I hope
                that made sense to you.

        Riff #1 (many times)
        For a small girl Barbara sure has got a big crush
                                        F
        The kind that makes you want to break stuff
        And blame it on a man you don't know

        Riff #1
        She came down to New York City on a big bus
                                   F
        Nine hours driving and you can't just stay home
                                           Em    G
        So it doesn't matter which way you go

                F   C       G
        And now all day the radio's been playing
            F    C     G   
        The same song, can't shake that tune
                 F C   G                        F
        But it's okay, maybe the world isn't so small
                Ab                             Riff #1
        Barbara knows it doesn't matter at all

        Riff #1
        And each day Barbara wakes up in a bad way
                                  F
        Tells me quietly she has absolutely nothing to say
        But I don't seem to mind

        Riff #1
        And she says she won't listen to the band play
                                   F
        She hates songs that never seem to go away
                          Em      G
        Now neither will mine

                F   C       G
        And now all day the radio's been playing
            F    C     G   
        The same song, can't shake that tune
                 F C   G                        F
        But it's okay, maybe the world isn't so small
                Ab                             Riff #1
        Barbara knows it doesn't matter at all

        (break)

                F   C       G
        And now all day the radio's been playing
            F    C     G   
        The same song, can't shake that tune
                 F C   G                        F
        But it's okay, maybe the world isn't so small
                Ab                             Riff #1
        Barbara knows it doesn't matter at all
                F
        Barbara knows...
                Ab                             Riff #1
        Barbara knows it doesn't matter at all...
        
        Riff #1
        At all...
        At all...
        At all...
        -------------------------------------------------------------
        Because of the capo on the 2nd fret, open notes are actually
        notes played on the 2nd fret, notes marked for the 3rd fret
        are actually on the 5th fret, and so on...

        Riff #1:  E--0---0---0---0---0---0---0---0----
                  B--1---1---1---1---1---1---1---1----
                  G--0---0---0---0---0---0---0---0----
                  D--3---3---3---2---2---0---0---0----
                  A--3---3---3---3---3---3---3---3----
