A
I'm one interesting case
                      D
And with the sun up so small
                      E
You can hardly see it through
          D                 A
The blue apartment building grey

[Verse]
                      D
So don't you bring me flowers
     E              A
Yeah don't bring me flowers
                       D              E
Cause flowers wouldn't help a thing today
E
today
D                        A
  Well maybe, they would
         D                     E
But they haven't worked much before
  D
I know
     A     F#m      E
That today might be different
      A      D
Cause you're no longer nipping
             A    F#m    E
at my heels

[Bridge]
D                        A
  Sad streets I walk down no more
                 D
And i'll make my way
                 E       D     A
And I'll make it good

[Outro]
                      D
Cause all it took was one
E              A
  Wave in the water
                        D
One look and I told the story
E         A
 To his mother
                D
And boy could he ever
                  E
That boy could sure sing

La da da
       D    A
La da da da
                  D
That boy could sure sing
      D
La da da
A    F#m   E   D
Ooooooooooohh  Ahh
D   A
Hmmmm
