Silken hair, more

Near her pillbox down at her feet

When she saw  her
D        Em7  D/F#
Shining fore-head

A7
Oh oh oh oh oh...

Bridge:

D
Oh Sha na na, sha na na na na na na na na
        Gdim
(What a blow)

Break:

    Gdim
She drew her comb acrost her scalp
    G#dim
And brushed what she had left
  Adim
I tried to salvage what I could
    A#dim
And threw it in a sack
    Bdim
She made a b-line to her room
    Cdim
And grabbed all kind o' juice
    C#dim
She started pourin' it on her head
    Ddim
And thought it'd grow it back
(Ah ha haaaaaa)

Coda:

       G
You're too late mama
      A7                  D
Ain't nothin' upside your head
                           D7
No more no more no more no more
Upside your head

G
Too late mama
      A7                  D
Ain't nothin' upside your head

No more no more no more no more
Upside your head

       G
You're too late mama
      A7                  D
Ain't nothin' upside your head
No more no more no more no more.
