	        Intro: 
E      B       E      A           E    B       
Hey hey, do do do do, do do do do do, do do 
E      B       E      A           E    B        
Hey hey, do do do do, do do do do do, do do 

verse 1: 
E                                  B               E 
What should I compare you to, that sun on winter's day? 
A               E                     B              B7 
Tulips standing proud and bright when all around is grey 
E                               B          E 
What should I compare you to, a comet or a star? 
  A              E                      B                    E 
A little flicker where you've been or a lighthouse where you are? 
     A             E          B               E 
Well I'm a certain person who sees a sense of life 
     A                E              B              E 
That hides behind the glory days and only shines at night 

Chorus: 
E B You're just a little red rooster; she's an old speckled hen B7 E E7 You've fallen in love once before, now it's happening again A D A F#m Just do what you use to, I'll do what I ca a a an E B A E And she'll be once, twice, three times your lady, and I'll be her man
Repeat Intro: verse 2: E B E What should I compare you to, that window facing south? A E B B7 That captures sun in tiny frames and throws it round the house E B E What should I compare you to, a compass or a stone? A E B E The rock that holds the whole thing down or the hand that points you home? A E B E Well I'm a certain person who sees a sense of life A E B E That hides behind the glory days and only shines at night Repeat Chorus: A E B E So listen up you middle aged or slightly older men A E B E If they look old to you my friend, you sure look old to them A E B E Take this from the rooster who found his speckled hen A E B E It's never down to who you love; it's purely down to when Repeat Chorus:
