CAPO 3

Standard Tuning

G5       D5       E5     G5   
Someday baby, when I am a man,
    C5         D5
and others have taught me
    G5               D5
the best that they can
         G5        D5     
They'll sell me a suit
E5        G5
cut off my hair
    C5       D5           G5           D5
and send me to work in tall buildings

         G5              D5
And it's goodbye to the sunshine
    E5         G5
goodbye to the dew
C5          D5
goodbye to the flowers
    G5           D5
and goodbye to you
    G5            D5
I'm off to the subway
  E5          G5
I must not be late
    C5     D5            G5          D5
I?m going to work in tall buildings

    G5          D5    
Now when I?m retired
       E5        G5 
And my life is my own
   C5        D5
I made all the payments
     G5          D5
It's time to go home
    G5           D5
and wonder what happened
  E5        G5
betwixt and between
    C5       D5           G5           D5
when I went to work in tall buildings

         G5              D5
And it's goodbye to the sunshine
    E5         G5
goodbye to the dew
C5          D5
goodbye to the flowers
    G5           D5
and goodbye to you
   G5            D5
I'm off to the subway
  E5          G5
I mustn't be late
C5     D5            G5          D5
Going to work in tall buildings
