=============================================================
*verse 1*
Three little birds, sat on my window.
And they told me I don't need to worry.
Summer came like cinnamon
So sweet,
Little girls double-dutch on the concrete.
*pre-Chorus*
A/F# (Freak-chord) A/F# B9
Maybe sometimes, we got it wrong, but it's alright
Dmaj7 Dmmaj7
The more things seem to change, the more they stay the same
Oh, don't you hesitate.
*Chorus*
Go, put your records on, tell me your favourite song
You go ahead, let your hair down
Sapphire and faded jeans, I hope you get your dreams,
Just go ahead, let your hair down.
Dmaj7 Dmmaj7
You're gonna find yourself somewhere, somehow.
*verse 2*
Blue as the sky, sombre and lonely,
Sipping tea in the bar by the road side,
(just relax, just relax)
Don't you let those other boys fool you,
Gotta love that afro hairdo.
{pre-Chorus}
{Chorus}
*bridge*
Bm9
Just more than I could take, pity for pity's sake
A/F#
Some nights kept me awake, I thought that I was stronger
Bm9 Dmaj7 Bm9
When you gonna realise, that you don't even have to try any longer.
Dmaj7
Do what you want to.
{Chorus} x2
