Full Song
Verse 1
C G
Hey, hey, hey,
Am F
Your lipstick stains on the front lobe of my left-side brains.
C G
I knew I wouldn’t forget you,
Am F
And so I went and let you blow my mind.
Chorus
C G Am F
Hey soul sister, ain’t that mister mister on the radio, stereo,

The way you move ain’t fair you know.

Hey soul sister, I don’t wanna miss
C G Am F
A single thing you do tonight.
