Capo:no capo
 
INTRO:
C                      D
Some folks I know keep looking for rare old coins 
    G
and stamps.
A                       D           G
While others see what's cooking, in antique books 
 
and lamps.
C                     D
Some hobbies are like slavery, there's one too tough 
    E
for words.
     A               E       G   A          G       C
This girl has got an aviary, and you should see her birds.

She's got chanticleers and dickey birds, intelligent and 
                   G                   C
tricky birds, that make the boys hang around.
    Fm                                            Gbm
Her crow is black and shiny, her hummingbirds are tiny,
          D                            G
but she's got the biggest parakeets in town!
 
#2.
          C                        D
She's got cockatoos and bobolinks, in royal blue and dusty 
                                              E
pinks, and you should see them hangin' upside down.
         C
Oh, it's thrilling to behold her, when she wings them past 
    Am                    G                            C
her shoulder, cause she's got the biggest parakeets in town!
 
#3.
C                        D                  G
And every night when she gets into bed, she puts each one 
     C
on a pillow.
C                                            A
Oh, they sound like Bing, when they start to sing, tweet 
D                           G
willow, tweet willow, tweet willow.

C                                        D
After holding them and petting them, she gets a thrill in 
                                                  E
letting them, go swingin' from the ceiling to the ground.
Fm                                               A
Ask anyone who's seen 'em, it's hard to choose between 'em.
            D               G            C
Cause she's got the biggest parakeets in town!

C                                             D
Imagine her in love one day, as she tells her fiance, "Okay!"
       G                     C
on the day the wedding rolls around.
C                            F                   C
Now, he loves the ground she stands on, he can't wait

Well, picture on their wedding night, when hubby, dear, turns
                                G              E
off the light, and wakes in the mornin' with a frown.
C     Am      A      D       Em        Ab     E
As he goes to caress her, he sees them on the dresser..

the biggest parakeets in town!
                                  D       G            C
