C                          Am             C      Am
When a girl changes from bobby sox to stockings  
 C                           Am          F
And she starts trading her baby toys for boys  
                       C
When that once-shy little sleepyhead  
Dm                   Am
Learns about love and its lilt  
F
You can bet that the change  
                          G
Is more than from cotton to silk  
 
C                          Am             C     Am
If a miss wants to be kissed instead of cuddled  
C                           Am          F
And to this you are in doubt as what to say  
C                        Am              Dm
When a girl changes from bobby sox to stockings  
F                             G           C
Then she's old enough to give her heart away

Yes, she's old enough to give her heart away
