(A and D alternating ending on A)
Her hair
Soft drifted snow
Death white
I'd like to know
Why she hates
All that she does
But she gives
it all that she's got
A
Until the sky turns green
C#m
The grass is several shades of blue
D E
Every member of parliament trips on glue
Until the sky turns green
And the grass is several shades of blue
Every member of parliament trips on glue
(A AND D AGAIN)
It takes all these things and all that time
Till my sugar spun sister's happy
With this love of mine
E D
It'll take all these things and oh much more
(A AND D)
I've paid
For fifteen or more
But my guts
Can't take many more
My hands are stuck
To my jeans
And she knows she knows
What this must mean
(A C#m D E)
She wakes up with the sun
She asks me what is all the fuss
As she gave me more than she thought she should
She wakes up with the sun
I think what have I done
As I gave her more than I thought I would
(A AND D)
At takes all these things and all that time
Till my sugar spun sister's happy
E D
With this love of mine
A AND D
Yeah yeah yeah the candy floss girl
The sticky fingered boy
Oh that sister of mine
Yeah
