Little Red Rooster

Intro: 
E      B       E      A           E    B       
Hey hey, do do do do, do do do do do, do do 
E      B       E      A           E    B        
Hey hey, do do do do, do do do do do, do do 

verse 1: 
E                                  B               E 
What should I compare you to, that sun on winter's day? 
A               E                     B              B7 
Tulips standing proud and bright when all around is grey 
E                               B          E 
What should I compare you to, a comet or a star? 
  A              E                      B                    E 
A little flicker where you've been or a lighthouse where you are? 
     A             E          B               E 
Well I'm a certain person who sees a sense of life 
     A                E              B              E 
That hides behind the glory days and only shines at night 

Chorus: 
                         E                              B 
You're just a little red rooster; she's an old speckled hen 
       B7                                             E   E7 
You've fallen in love once before, now it's happening again 
                 A            D         A      F#m 
Just do what you use to, I'll do what I ca a a an 
              E                             B                     A   E 
And she'll be once, twice, three times your lady, and I'll be her man 

Repeat Intro: 

verse 2: 
E                                  B             E 
What should I compare you to, that window facing south? 
     A               E               B                    B7 
That captures sun in tiny frames and throws it round the house 
E                               B            E 
What should I compare you to, a compass or a stone? 
    A                   E                       B                    E 
The rock that holds the whole thing down or the hand that points you home? 
     A             E          B               E 
Well I'm a certain person who sees a sense of life 
     A                E              B              E 
That hides behind the glory days and only shines at night 

Repeat Chorus: 

   A             E              B              E 
So listen up you middle aged or slightly older men 
A                   E                  B                E 
If they look old to you my friend, you sure look old to them 
A                  E           B                  E 
Take this from the rooster who found his speckled hen 
     A             E                  B              E 
It's never down to who you love; it's purely down to when 

Repeat Chorus:
