Here CI am again, Singing the Gsame old tune
HGolding everything as close as I Ccan to you
If Clove is anywhere, Mine sGtill belongs with you
GBut I'm holding it in my hCand
SChe lays her head, Upon your sGhoulder
But aGll I see is the way that you Chold her
You Clive in your house, With a Gbeautiful view
AGnd I live in an your Capple tree
FI am a Csongbird, FSinging out your Cwindow
FTelling stories Gin the Cshade
And I can't fly FawayG
