Oh Girl The Chi-Lites (Cover)

Sunday Night...the Live from Ted's House Session... :)
"Oh Girl" is a number-one single recorded by the soul vocal group, The Chi-Lites and released on Brunswick Records in 1972. Included on the group's 1972 album A Lonely Man, "Oh Girl" centers around a relationship on the verge of break-up. The narrator, portrayed by the song's author Eugene Record, expresses concern that the break-up may prove unbearable for him ("Oh girl/I'd be in trouble if you left me now/'Cause I don't know where to look for love/I just don't know how"), while knowing that staying will be no better ("I could save myself a lot of useless tears/Girl I've got to get away from here"; "Better be on my way, I can't stay here").
"Oh Girl" was the Chi-Lites' first and only number-one single on the Billboard Hot 100, peaking at that position in May 1972 for one week. The single also reached the top position of the Billboard R&B Singles chart the following month, remaining in that position for two weeks. In addition, it reached number fourteen on the UK Singles Chart in July 1972.
"Oh Girl" was also covered by British hip hop artist Hard Livin', Leo Sayer on his 1979 album, Here, and country music singer Con Hunley, who took his version of the song to number 12 on the Billboard Hot Country Singles chart in 1982.
The track was performed in 1990 by Paul Young. Young's version was also a hit, reaching number one on the Adult Contemporary chart and number eight on the Hot 100 in 1990.
"Oh Girl" was featured on The Sopranos Season 4, in 2002.
It was covered in a punk style by Me First and the Gimme Gimmes on their 2003 album, Take a Break.
Over thirty years after the original release of "Oh Girl", the recording was sampled by the Southern rapper, Paul Wall, for his 2006 single "Girl".

Why is it that every single decent cover on you tube has every other comment asking for chords

[@blockerjosh]

Why is it that every decent cover on you tube has every other comment asking for chords or tab? unless you're a novice player you should be ale to figure the chords out simply by figuring out what key the song is in. once you've been playing for about a year you shouldn't have to ask. IF you still can't decipher sounds, take some lessons. or just o to one of the hundreds of free sites that give you the free chords and tab. And strumming pattern. Come on. Great job on the cover guys, really good
