Cockle-Doodle Do

©2013 Garrett Clevenger

 

E    G    A    B   

 

E          Itchy finger,

G         pulled the trigger

A         in the Fall

B         colors change us all

 

E    G    A    B   

 

E          Coldness creeps in

G         When will it end?

A         In the Spring

B         little chickies sing

 

E    G    A    B   

 

Chorus:

D  A  E        Cockle-doodle do

A  D  E        Cockle-doodle don't

G  A  E        Wham, bam, thank you, mam

B                 Will you or you won't

 

E    G    A    B   

 

E          Calling it quits

G         The words from your lips

A         Now we're two ships

B         Taking separate trips

 

E    G    A    B   

 

E          The baker makes bread

G         The beggar wants head

A         The lovers now dread

B         What was never said

 

{chorus}

 

E    G    A    B   

 

E          Free without me

G         Or crashing, we'll see

A         In the night

B         When it's real: no light

 

E    G    A    B   

 

E          Just averted

G         what's perverted

A         Everyday

B         comes the rising ray

 

E    G    A    B   

 

{chorus}

 

 

E          Breaking heart strings

G         Trashing love rings

A         Keeping secrets

B         Deserving what she gets

 

E    G    A    B   

 

E          Flush the toilet

G         Try to forget

A         Wipe it down

B         Everything that's brown

 

{chorus}
