Close my eyes, make the pies all day 
Am 
Plastic cap on my hair 
  F 
I used to mind now I don't care 
  C                                       G 
I used to mind now I don't care 'cause I'm great

Thursday nights I go and type

F 
Big blue eyes and his honey brown hair and he's 
C                                 G 
Looking at me way up there on the wall 


                    F             C 
Did I show you this picture of my sweetheart?

Of the Greek and his Italian girl 
    G 
One Sunday at the shore 
            F              C 
We tied our ribbons to the fire escape 
          G            F 
They were taken by the birds 
                     C 
Who flew home to the country 
       G                   F 
As the bombs rained on the world

You could cry or die or just make pies all day
