E               B            E
There goes that little girl again
E              B                  E
Her years have passed, but all in vain
A                             E
The birds have fallen from the trees
          F#m     Am        E
And it is told in these old memories

[Interlude]
A D F#

[Verse 1]
B            F#         G#m     D#m
Birds on the wing at the end of the day
E
The trees of green and brown you see
             F#
Have suddenly turned grey

A D F#

B            F#             G#m     D#m
Don't be too sad when you're waiting for death
E
The message on the garden wall says
                F#
Mickey Mouse is bad

A D F#

[Chorus]
B    C
Ooh, Need, I need, I need, I need her
E          A                 E                 A
The broken arrows in the door, there's lots of Indians
B    C
Ooh, Need, I need, I need, I need her
E             A
The grass has grown above her hair
E          A
The pretty patterned teddy bear
E    C            E
Aah, aah aah yeah yeah

[Interlude]
A D F#

[Verse 2]
B        F#         G#m           D#m
Her baby cries in the heat of the night
E                                                      F#
Footsteps up the stairs her mother's there to hold her tight

A D F#

B           F#           G#m         D#m
Happy young child and his dog running wild
E                                                   F#
Spring is in the air and they've been running for a mile

F#                          Em
Remember when that girl was 5 years old
B                              F#
Now she's grown older with the lie she told

[Interlude]
A D F#

[Verse 3]
B           F#           G#m         D#m
Why did this happen, where did I do wrong?
E                                                       F#
I know that now I'm home I'm not too young and then I'm gone

A D F#

[Chorus]
B    C
Ooh, Need, I need, I need, I need her
E          A                 E                 A
The broken arrows in the door, there's lots of Indians
B    C
Ooh, Need, I need, I need, I need her
E             A
The grass has grown above her hair
E          A
The pretty patterned teddy bear
E    C            E
Aah, aah aah yeah yeah

Have suddenly turned grey
