[Verse - No drums]  
Oh, I could [G] hide 'neath the w [Am] wings
Of the [Bm] bluebird as she [C] sings
The [G] six-o-clock a [Em] larm 
would never [A7] ring [D7] (E-2-0 B-3)
But it [G] rings and I [Am] rise
Wash the [Bm] sleep out of my [C] eyes
(chords 1/2 bar each)
My [G] shaving [Em] razor's [Am] cold 
[D7] and it stings [G]

[G] home [Em]

[Verse - Light drums] 
You [G] once thought of [Am] me 
As a [Bm] white knight on a [C] steed
Now [G] you know how [Em] happy
Life can be [A7] [D7]
And our good [G] times start and [Am] end
Without [Bm] dollar one to [C] spend
But [G] how much [Em] baby [Am] do we 
[D7] really need [G]
