Cmaj7 Dm G
I was about 7 when I first started having violin lessons
Cmaj7
One minute she was fine, the next she started throwing her violins across the room
Dm G
[Verse 1]
Cmaj7 Dm G
Miss Trudy, she teaches all the girls to sing
Cmaj7 Dm G
Miss Trudy, she teaches the violin
Cmaj7 Dm G
But when the girls turned into pretty, pretty things she
[Bridge]
F#m G#m C#m
dried her eyes and cried...
F#m G#m C#m
la la la la la la la la la
[Verse 2]
Cmaj7 Dm G
Miss Trudy, she smashed up all her violins
Cmaj7 Dm G
Miss Trudy, she taught all the girls to sing
[Chorus]
Am G Dm
And when she cries, she cries for only her
Am G Dm
The remains of twenty wooden violins scattered across the floor
[Verse 3]
Cmaj7 Dm G
1 2 3 4, 1 2 3 4, 1 2 3 4,
Cmaj7 Dm G
1 2 3 4, 1 2 3 4, 1 2 3 4,
Cmaj7 Dm G
1 2 3 4, 1 2 3 4, 1 2 3 4,
Cmaj7 Dm G
1 2 3 4, 1 2 3 4, 1 2 3 4,
[Chorus 2]
Am G Dm
And when she cries, she cries only for her
Am G Dm
Her teardrops fall on my violin on the floor
[Outro]
Cmaj7 Dm G
Miss Trudy, at least you taught the girls to sing
Cmaj7
