Hey Indie Girl

from Emerald City Love Song by Sweet Diss and the Comebacks

	/

lyrics

Hey indie girl, I gotta hand it to you
You know a lot of great songs
So here's a tune to try to win you over
It goes a little bit like this

I just want to be loved
In the same way that she does
Iron and Wine

She only shops at the local thrift store
She only listens to the records on her bedroom floor
She rides her bike to the local rock show
'Cause she doesn't own a television or a radio

She's my indie girl
indie girl...

Hey indie girl I worry that my songs are lame
And won't do nothin' for you
You're into folk and I'm still playing power-pop
I write 'em all down and I can't stop

and I just want to be loved
In the same way that she does
Tegan Sara

CHORUS

BRIDGE/HARMONIES

CHORUS

Is she a hipster? Has she religion?
I think she'd smile and tell you "Baby, Pescetarian"
She dug Arcade Fire til they got popular
Hey Indie Girl I know a different group that ain't that far
Yes Indie Girl
