Intro: D5 - G----
D5
A little bird told me late last night that
if I hold my breath and do everything right
E5
You might come back
D5
If I color my hair and I wear it down
and I make you laugh like a circus clown
E5
You might come back
G5
And a little bird said with the wink of an eye
if I beg real hard and I do not cry
C5
You might come back
G5
If I keep my opinion under my breath
and I only bring it out when the master says
C5
You might come back
D5 E5 G5 E5
But I don't want you that bad
D5 E5 G5 E5
No I don't want you that bad
D5
Well a little bird told me as plain as day
if I changed my name and I change my way
E5
You might come back
D5
If I sell my soul for the greater cause
If I burn my records and I listen to yours
E5
You might come back
C5
And a little bird said in the middle of a dream
if I shut my mouth and I don't make a scene
G5
You might come back
C5
If I crossed my fingers and curl my toes
If I looked liked the other girls everybody knows
G5
You might come back
D5 E5 G5 E5
