The Girl in 14G

(F6)Just moved in to (Gm7)Fourteen "G,"

so (F6)cozy, (D7)calm and (Gm7)peaceful.

(F6)Heaven for a (Gm7)mouse like (C7)me

(F)with quiet (A7)by the leaseful.

(D6)Pets are banned,

(Em7)parties too, and (D6)no (Fdim7)(Em7)solicitations.

(D6)Window seat with (Em7)garden view.

(F)A perfect nook (C7)to read a book.

I'm (F)lost in my Jane (C7)Austen when I hear:

(Bdim7)"Ah, ah."

(C7)Say it isn't (F6)so.

(Gm7)Not the flat (Caug)(F6)below.

(Gm7)From an (Caug7)op'ra (F6)wanna be in (D9)Thirteen "G,"

a (Gm7)matinee of some cantata, (C9)Wagner's Ring and (C7)Traviata.

(Dm)"Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, (Gm)ah,

ah, (Dm)ah, ah, ah, ah, ah,

ah, (Gm)ah, ah, (Dm)ah, ah, ah,

ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, (Gm)ah,

ah, (C)ah, ah, (F)ah, ah, (Bb)ah,

ah, (Bdim7)ah,

(A)ah, ah, ah, ah, (E7)ah, (A)ah,

ah, ah, ah, (E7)ah, (A)ah, ah,

(E7)ah, ah, (A)ah, ah, (E7)ah, ah,

(A)ah, (E7)ah, (A)ah, (E7)ah."

(F6)My first night in (Gm7)Fourteen "G."

I'll (F6)put up (D7)with (Gm7)Puccini.

(F6)Brew myself a (Gm7)cup of tea.

(F)Crochet (A7)until she's fini.

(D6)Half past eight,

(Em7)not a peep (D6)except the (Fdim7)clock tick tockin'.

(D6)Now I lay me (Em7)down to sleep.

(F)A comfy bed

(C7)to rest my head.

A (F)stretch, a yawn;

I'm (C7)almost gone, then

(C9)(Fm6)"Dooweezwah dootahdupdoo speedilee deefloydoy beeblip,

(G13)(Gb7)(F9)(E7)naanaanaanaanaanaanaanaanaanaanaanaa, (D13)wooweeee.

(C7)Now the girl (F6)upstairs (Gm7)wakes me (Caug)(F6)unawares.

(Gm7)Blowin' down (Caug7)from (F6)Fifteen "G" her (D9)reveille.

She's (Gm7)scattin' like her name is Ella.
