Gb Little birdie making car alarm sounds
Ab In the tree next to your house

Ebm And the stars above
Ebm Was that a satellite you drew, my love? [Chorus] (0:43-1:16)

Db Ab It's a black dog in a junkyard

If you really wanted to add a little more flair, you could tune down to Eb standard which would allow you to play the Eb chord at two different octaves shown here:
[Verse] Gb Ab Ebm Ebm E|---3-----5-----7-----0---| B|---3-----5-----8-----0---| G|---4-----6-----9-----0---| D|---5-----7-----9-----2---| A|---5-----7-----7-----2---| E|---3-----5-----------0---|
This would also open up the chorus to be played with simple open chords as seen here:
[Chorus] Db Ab B Gb E|---2-----0-----0-----3---| B|---3-----2-----1-----0---| G|---2-----2-----0-----0---| D|---0-----2-----2-----0---| A|---------0-----3-----2---| E|---------------------3---|
