C                                            Am                  C        Am 
When a girl changes from bobby sox to stockings  
   C                                         Am             F 
And she starts trading her baby toys for boys  
                                     C 
When that once-shy little sleepyhead  
Dm                              Am 
Learns about love and its lilt  
F 
You can bet that the change  
                                         G 
Is more than from cotton to silk  
 

C                                       Am                  C        Am 
If a miss wants to be kissed instead of cuddled  
C                                         Am             F 
And to this you are in doubt as what to say  
C                                        Am                     Dm 
When a girl changes from bobby sox to stockings  
F                                               G                C 
Then she's old enough to give her heart away  
 

C                                            Am                  C        Am

Yes, she's old enough to give her heart away
