better to strum a chord only once when indicated.
 CSpring is  A7here, a-suh-puh-D7ring is  G7here.
 CLife is  A7skittles and  D7life is  G7beer.
 CI think the  G7loveliest  Ctime of the  G7year is the C  
spring.
Dont  A7you?   D7Course you  G7do.
But theres  Dmone thing that makes spring  Ccomplete for me,
And  D7makes every Sunday a  Gtreat for  G7me.
All the  Cworld seems in tune
On a spring afternoon,
When were poisoning pigeons in the  G7park.
Every  DmSunday youll see
My sweetheart and me,
As we  G7poison the pigeons in the  Cpark.
When  Fthey see us coming, the  Cbirdies all try anhide,
But they  D7still go for peanuts when  G7coated with cyanide.
The  Csuns shining bright,
Everything seems all right,
When were  D7poisoning  G7pigeons in the  Cpark.
Weve  G7gained notoriety,
And  Ccaused much anxiety
In the  G7Audubon Society
With our  Cgames.
They  A7call it impiety,
And lack of propriety,
And quite a variety
Of unpleasant  Dnames.
But its  D7not against any reGligion
To  D7want to dispose of a  G7pigeon.
 G7So if  CSunday youre free,
Why dont you come with me,
And well poison the pigeons in the  G7park.
And  Dmmaybe well do
In a squirrel or two,
While were  G7poisoning pigeons in the  Cpark.
Well  Fmurder them all amid  Claughter and merriment,
Ex D7cept for the few we take  G7home to experiment.
My  Cpulse will be quikenin
With each drop of strychnine
We  D7feed to a  G7pigeon.
It  D7just takes a  G7smidgen!
To [D7] poison  A[G7] pigeon in the [C] park.  [G7] [C]
