No capo, regular tuning.
[Verse 1]
Am C Dm7 E7
Oh my ugly duckling, nobody loves you
Am C Dm7 E7
Daddy said he'd buy you some ballet shoes
Am F7
But he spent all he had on hash
Am F7
And avoiding another crash
Am C Dm7 E7
Now who will look after you
[Chorus]
Dm7 Em
One night your shoulders will ache
Dm7 Em
But next day when you wake
Dm7 Em
You'll sprout wild wings,
F
and fly
G E7
Just like in Swan Lake
[Verse 2]
Am C Dm7 E7
Oh you helpless birdlings, nobody wants you
Am C Dm7 E7
How will you ever survive out of the nest
Am F7
And the wolf will put his nose in
Am F7
And the water is so frozen
Am C Dm7 E7
You'll have to swim like all the rest
[Chorus]
Dm7 Em
One night your shoulders will ache
Dm7 Em
But next day when you wake
Dm7 Em
You'll sprout wild wings,
F
and fly
G E7
Just like in Swan Lake
