You've Got Her In Your Pocket Tab
************** You've Got Her In Your Pocket **************
************** The White Stripes **************
This is my first proper tab. I worked it all out by myself. I think it is a decent
version and it sounds right to me when I play it. Go and check out the album
"Elephant" now!

A x1 then
(The D has a hammer on on the
Am G D 1st string - easy to work out when)
Nobody ever told you that it was the wrong way
Am G D
to trick a woman, make her feel she did it her way
C G (The G has some some hammer on's
and youll be there if she ever feels blue as well - work it out yourself)
C G
and youll be there when she finds someone new
A
what to do
well you know
(PLAY INTRO AGAIN) (The rest of the song uses the same chord
progressions for verses and pre chorus
You keep her in your pocket and the intro is played again during
where theres no way out now the chorus - with slight variation)
put it in the safe and lock it
cause its home sweet home
The smile on your face made her think
she had the right one
then she thought she was sure
by the way you two could have fun
but now youre scared
you think shes running away
you search in your hand for something clever to say
dont go away
cause I want
To keep you in my pocket
where theres no way out now
put it in the safe and lock it
cause its home sweet home
And in your own mind
you know youre lucky just to know her
and in the beginning all you wanted
was to show her
but now she might leave
like shes threatened before
grab hold of her fast
before her feet leave the floor
and shes out the door
cause you want
To keep her in your pocket
