a a    d  d    d c   d  a
  D-      /      C      D-
I used to know a pretty girl
    C       /       D-    /
Who cut off all her hair
    F        A-/E  D-       C
The scissors flew among her curls
    Bb         A-   D-     /
And curls were everywhere

I gathered up her fallen locks
And carried them away
And put them in silver box
And keep them to this day

D-    /     /              /
Song, sing, birdy with the wing
    /       /      A     /
You perfect circle sun
    D-        /      G        D-
The grown ups get to make the rules
    G       A       D-    /
And we have all the fun
     G       A       D-     /
Yes, we have all the fun

intro

But now I am in love with you
And I hope that you will stay
And to prove that my love is true
I'll throw the curls away

Song, sing, birdy with the wing
Perfect circle sun
The grown ups get to make the rules
And we have all the fun
Yes, we have all the fun
