1. Early each day to the steps of Saint Paul's,
          Am         E                Am
    the little old bird woman comes.
               Am              Dm              F            E
    In her own special way to the people she calls,
      Am                    E                Am
    "Come, buy my bags full of crumbs.
 
       G                                        C
    Come feed the little birds, show them you care,
      G                                   C   - E
    and you'll be glad if you do.
              Am                    Dm                 F             E
    Their young ones are hungry, their nests are so bare,
           Am         E                     Am - G
    all it takes is tuppence from yo??.u."
 
       C          Em     F                 C
    Feed the birds, tuppence a bag,
     F               C              D                G
    tuppence, tuppence, tuppence a bag.
        C          Em         F                      C
    "Feed the birds," that's what she cries,
        F             C            G                C        - E
    while overhead, her birds fill the skies.
 
            Am               Dm           Am                E
2. All around the cathedral the saints and apostles
             Am                E           Am
    look down as she sells her wares.
           C                      G                 C                     G
    Although you can't see it, you know they are smiling,
              C                        E                 Am     - G
    each time someone shows that he cares.
 
         C             Em            F                C
    Though her words are simple and few,
     F        C                  D            G
    listen, listen, she's calling to you:
         C         Em     F                  E
    "Feed the birds, tuppence a bag,
     F             Dm             F            G   C       - E
    tuppence, tuppence, tuppence a bag."
