Corinne Bailey Rae – Put Your Records On Chords

Three little birds, sat on my window.
And they told me I don’t need to worry.
Summer came like cinnamon.

So sweet, little girls double-dutch on the concrete.
Maybe sometimes, we’ve got it wrong, but it’s alright.
The more things seem to change, the more they stay the same.
Oh, don’t you hesitate.

Girl, put your records on, tell me your favourite song.
You go ahead, let your hair down.
Sapphire and faded jeans, I hope you get your dreams,
Just go ahead, let your hair down.
You’re gonna find yourself somewhere, somehow.

Blue as the sky, sunburnt and lonely,
Sipping tea in a bar by the roadside,
(just relax, just relax)
Don’t you let those other boys fool you,

Got to love that afro hair do.
Maybe sometimes, we’ve got it wrong, but it’s alright.
The more things seem to change, the more they stay the same.
Don’t you think it’s strange?

Girl, put your records on, tell me your favourite song.
You go ahead, let your hair down.
Sapphire and faded jeans, I hope you get your dreams,
Just go ahead, let your hair down.
You’re gonna find yourself somewhere, somehow.

’Twas more than I could take, pity for pity’s sake
Some nights kept me awake, I thought that I was stronger
When you gonna realise, that you don’t even have to try any longer?
Do what you want to…

Girl, put your records on, tell me your favourite song.
You go ahead, let your hair down.
Sapphire and faded jeans, I hope you get your dreams,
Just go ahead, let your hair down.
You’re gonna find yourself somewhere, somehow.

Girl, put your records on, tell me your favourite song.
You go ahead, let your hair down.
Sapphire and faded jeans, I hope you get your dreams,
Just go ahead, let your hair down.
You’re gonna find yourself somewhere, somehow.
