Tom: Am
C F C F C F G F
C F
She works 'cross the river from my house
Am Em
I work at getting to know her
F C F G
Over the bridge to the lonely town, to walk it's not that far
C F
Some days I make it my mission
Am Em
To drive right passed her salon
F C F G
I prefer to worship her from a car
Dm Em E
I am going to the Jeans West acid-wash sale
F G F
'Cause I know that she'll be there
C F
She cuts hair
C F
She cuts hair
C G F G
And acid-wash is what she likes to wear
C G Bb F
When she cuts hair
C G Bb F
C F
Dreaming 'bout the places we would go
Am Em
It'd be like I won the lotto
F C F G
I would have tickets on myself
C F
If I offered my love and kisses
Am Em
Would she come at me with her scissors?
F C F G
Love's declaration could be bad for my health
Dm Em E
A mutual friend tells me, "Aww, she won't go for you Daz!"
F G F
But I say I couldn't care
C F
'Cause she cuts hair
C F
She cuts hair
C G F G
You could almost taste the peroxide in the air
C G Bb F
When she cut hair
C G Bb F
C G Bb F
And all I've got to show
C G Bb F G
Is a five dollar photo from the night club window
F G F G F
C F C F C F G F
C F
The sun is shining as I open my door
Am Em
The neighbours wave as they water their lawns
F C
I had to tell her
F G
I knew it was time
C
I'd go to the salon
F Am
And there I would wait for her lunch hour
Em
She wouldn't be late
F C F G
My mouth went dry as I practiced my lines
Dm
As the town-hall clock struck three
Em E
I delivered my soliloquy
F
She wouldn't give the time of day to me
G F
But she gave my pride
C F
A short back and sides
C F
Short back and sides
C G
She gave my pride
F G
A short back and sides
C F
Short back and sides
C F
Short back and sides
C G
Now when I pass her way
F G
I'll always try and hide
