D5        F#5       F5        B5            E5
        Candy says,       I've come to hate my body
                            A5       D5             A5
        And all that it requires in this world
        D5        F#5         F5         B5               E5
        Candy says,           I'd like to know completely
              A5            D5              A5
        What others so discreetly talk about


        D5            G5                  E5
        I'm gonna watch the blue birds fly
        A5
        over my shoulder
        D5            G5                  E5
        I'm gonna watch 'em pass me by
        A5
        maybe when I'm older
        C5                       G5
        What do you think I'd see
        A5                          C5
        if I could walk away from me


        D5        F#5       F5                        B5
        Candy says,           I hate the quiet places
        E5              A5        D5              A5
        That cause the smallest taste of what will be


        D5         F#5        F5                      B5
        Candy says,           I hate the big decisions
        E5              A5        D5             A5
        That cause endless revisions in my mind


        D5            G5                    E5
        I'm gonna watch the blue birds fly
        A5
        over my shoulder
        D5          G5                 E5
        I'm gonna watch 'em pass me by
        A5
        maybe when I'm older


        C5                        G5
        What do you think I'd see
        A5                           C5
        if I could walk away from me


        D5        G5
        Doo-doo-wah
        D5             G5
        Doo, doo-doo-wah
        D5              G5
        Doo, doo-doo-wah
        D5              G5
        Doo, doo-doo-wah
        D5              G5
        Doo, doo-doo-wah

        Doo
