Ooh baby Ooh said Ooh
DO RE
And the days go by like a strand in the wind
MIm
In the web that is my own I begin again
DO RE MIm
Said to my friend, Baby, nothing else mattered
DO RE MIm
He was no more than a baby then
DO RE
Well he seemed broken-hearted
MIm
Something within him
DO RE MIm
But the moment that I first laid eyes on him
DO RE MIm
All alone on the edge of seventeen
DO RE
Just like the white winged dove sings a song sounds like shes singin
MIm
Ooh baby Ooh said Ooh

Just like the white winged dove sings a song sounds like shes singin
MIm
Ooh baby Ooh said Ooh
DO RE MIm
Well I went today maybe I will go again tomorrow
DO RE MIm
And the music there well it was hauntingly familiar
DO RE
When I see you doin what I try to do for me
MIm
With the words from a poet and a voice from a choir
DO RE MIm
And a melody, nothin else mattered
DO RE
Just like the white winged dove sings a song sounds like shes singin
MIm
Ooh baby Ooh said Ooh
DO RE
Just like the white winged dove sings a song sounds like shes singin
MIm
Ooh baby Ooh said Ooh
MIm RE DO RE DO
The clouds never expect it when it rains but the sea changes color
RE DO RE
But the sea does not change
MIm RE DO RE
So with the slow sad graceful glow of age
DO RE DO RE
I went forth with an age old desire to please
DO RE DO RE
On the edge of seventeen
Ooh............

Ooh baby Ooh said Ooh
DO RE MIm
Well then suddenly there was noone left standin in the hallway
DO RE MIm
Yeah Yeah, in a flood of tears that noone really ever heard fall at all
DO RE
Well I went searchin for an answer up the stairs and down the hall
MIm DO RE
Not to find an answer but just to hear the call of a nightbird
MIm
Singin come away, come away, come away
DO RE
Just like the white winged dove sings a song sounds like shes singin
MIm
Ooh baby Ooh said Ooh
DO RE
Just like the white winged dove sings a song sounds like shes singin
MIm
Ooh baby Ooh said Ooh
MIm RE MIm RE
Well I hear you in the mornin' and I hear you at nightfall
MIm RE MIm RE DO RE MIm
And sometimes to be near you is to be unable to hear you my love
DO RE MIm
Im a few years older than you my love
DO RE
Just like the white winged dove sings a song sounds like shes singin
MIm
Ooh baby Ooh said Ooh
