Lyrics & Chords

Full Song

Verse 1

G C

Three little birds sat on my window

G C

And they told me I don’t need to worry

G C

Summer came like cinnamon, so sweet

G C

Little girls double-dutch on the concrete

Chorus

G C

Maybe sometimes we’ve got it wrong, but it’s alright

G C

The more things seem to change, the more they stay the same

G

Oh, don’t you hesitate

D C

Girl, put your records on, tell me your favorite song

G C

You go ahead, let your hair down

D C

Sapphire and faded jeans, I hope you get your dreams

G C

Just go ahead, let your hair down

Verse 2

G C

You’re gonna find yourself somewhere, somehow

G C

Blue as the sky, sunburnt and loud

G C

Talking and laughing under a ceiling fan

G C

In your eyes I see the sunlight

Chorus

G C

Maybe sometimes we’ve got it wrong, but it’s alright

G C

The more things seem to change, the more they stay the same

G

Oh, don’t you hesitate

D C

Girl, put your records on, tell me your favorite song

G C

You go ahead, let your hair down

Oh, you’re gonna find yourself somewhere, somehow
