trying to make the other side
 B5                   B5/A                       E/G
Ever seen a young girl growing old

When they have finally stripped you of
D
The handbags and the gladrags

That your poor old Grandad had to sweat to buy you

Verse 2 same as verse 1
Once I was a young man
and all I thought I had to do was smile
You are still a young girl
and you bought everything in style

Fm                                       E
so once you think you're in you're out
A                                         B
'cause you don't mean a single thing without
D
the handbags and the gladrags
E7sus4                                                    B5,     B5/A,     E/G,      E      B5,  B5/A, E/G,   A, E, B5, A, E (A TO E quick changes, listen 2 the song)

that your poor old Grandad had to sweat to buy you

Verse 3 same as above verse

Sing a song of six-pence for your sake
And take a bottle full of rye
Four and twenty blackbirds in a cake
And bake them all in a pie

chorus same as before

They told me you missed school today
So what I suggest you just throw them all away
the handbags and the gladrags
that your poor old Granddad had to sweat to buy you

chorus same as before

They told me you missed school today
So I suggest you just throw them all away
the handbags and the gladrags
that your poor old Granddad had to sweat to buy you
Outro

 B5,     B5/A,     E/G,      E         X2

Then play part 1 of the intro twice but on the 2nd time replace the last few notes with A, E and finish on B5

This is a really good song to play and sounds great acoutically.

although some of the chords are listed as power chord, the song sounds better if u play all the strings, especially if is just u playing acoustically ;)
