C                       F                       
She works 'cross the river from my house
Am                      Em
I work at getting to know her
F                       C               F                 G
Over the bridge to the lonely town, to walk it's not that far

C                       F
Some days I make it my mission
Am                      Em
To drive right passed her salon
F            C       F          G
I prefer to worship her from a car

Dm                  Em                   E
I am going to the Jeans West acid-wash sale
F                           G          F
'Cause I know that she'll be there
          C     F
She cuts hair
          C     F
She cuts hair
C         G       F               G
And acid-wash is what she likes to wear
                C    G   Bb  F
When she cuts hair

C    G   Bb  F

C                       F
Dreaming 'bout the places we would go
Am              Em
It'd be like I won the lotto
F               C               F  G
I would have tickets on myself

C               F
If I offered my love and kisses
Am               Em
Would she come at me with her scissors?
F               C               F       G
Love's declaration could be bad for my health

Dm                              Em               E
A mutual friend tells me, "Aww, she won't go for you Daz!"
F                      G  F
But I say I couldn't care
                C   F
'Cause she cuts hair
         C   F
She cuts hair
C              G         F               G
You could almost taste the peroxide in the air
                C    G   Bb  F
When she cut hair

C    G   Bb  F

    C        G           Bb       F
And all I've got to show
     C           G              Bb            F     G    
Is a five dollar photo from the night club window

C                       F
The sun is shining as I open my door
Am                              Em
The neighbours wave as they water their lawns
F       C
I had to tell her
F               G
I knew it was time

C               
I'd go to the salon
F                               Am              
And there I would wait for her lunch hour
        Em
She wouldn't be late
F               C       F           G
My mouth went dry as I practiced my lines

Dm
As the town-hall clock struck three
Em              E
I delivered my soliloquy
F
She wouldn't give the time of day to me 
                G       F
But she gave my pride
                C       F
A short back and sides
                C       F
Short back and sides
C               G
She gave my pride
F               G
A short back and sides
                C       F
Short back and sides    
                C       F
Short back and sides
C               G
Now when I pass her way
F               G
I'll always try and hide
