Corinne Bailey Rae-Put Your Records On - BPM - 96
[Intro - No drums, no bass - just guitar][G] [A7] [C/D] [G]
[Verse 1]
[G] Three little birds, [A7] sat on my window
[C/D] And they told me I don't need to wor [G] ry
[G] Summer came like cinna [A7] mon, so sweet
[C/D] Little girls double-dutch on the con [G] crete
[Em7] Maybe some [B7/D#] times, we've
[Em7] got it wrong, but it's alright [A9]
The [Cmaj7] more things seem to change,
the more [Cmmaj7] (drums stop) they stay the same
Oh, don't you hesitate
[Chorus]
[G] Girl, put your records on, [A7/E] tell me your favourite song
(don't sing 'you' high note - too high - rest is ok)
[C/D] You* go ahead, let your hair [G] down
[G] Sapphire and faded jeans, [A7/E] I hope you get your dreams,
(don't sing 'just' high note - too high - rest is ok)
[C/D] Just go ahead, let your hair [G] down
[Cmaj7] You're gonna find yourself [Cmmaj7-x31003]
somewhere, some (drums stop) [G] how
[Vamp]
[G]
[Verse 2 * is the downbeat] (Drums back in)
[G] Blue as the sky, [A7] sunburnt and lonely,
[C/D] Sipping tea in a bar by the roads [G] ide,
(just relax, just [G] relax)
Don't you *let those other boys[A7] fool you,
[C/D] Got to love that afro hair [G] do
[Em7] Maybe [B7/D#] sometimes, we feel
[Em7] afraid, but it's alright [A9]
The [Cmaj7] (drums stop) more you stay the same,
the more they [Cmmaj7] seem to change (drums back in)
Don't you think it's strange?
[Chorus]
[G] Girl, put your records on, [A7/E] tell me your favourite song
(don't sing 'you' high note - too high - rest is ok)
[C/D] You* go ahead, let your hair [G] down
[G] Sapphire and faded jeans, [A7/E] I hope you get your dreams,
(don't sing 'just' high note - too high - rest is ok)
[C/D] Just go ahead, let your hair [G] down
[Cmaj7] You're gonna find yourself [Cmmaj7-x31003]
somewhere, (drums stop) some how
[Bridge] (Drums back)
[Am7] 'Twas more than I could take, pity for pity's sake
[Em] Some nights kept me awake, [N.C.] I thought that I was stronger
(chords now half time for this bit)
[Am7]When you gonna [Am7]realise, (NOW DOWN ONE OCTAVE - REMEMBER TO PROJECT)
[Am7] that you don't even[G/B] have to
[Cmaj7]try any [Am7] longer? [Cmaj7] Do what you [Cmaj7]want to
[Chorus] (Drums stop)

[C/D] You go ahead, let your hair [G] down (oh, let your hair down!)
[G] Sapphire and faded jeans, [A7/E] I hope you get your dreams (hope you get your dreams)
(don't sing 'just' high note - too high - rest is ok)
[C/D] Just go ahead, let your hair [G] down (sister, let your hair down!)
[G] Girl, put your records on, [A7/E] tell me your favourite song
(don't sing 'you' high note - too high - rest is ok)
[C/D] You go ahead, let your hair [G] down
[G] Sapphire and faded jeans, [A7/E] I hope you get your dreams,
(don't sing 'you' high note - too high - rest is ok)
[C/D] Just go ahead, let your hair [G] down
