G         D
  Giupetto, Pinnochio
G                               C
  Your adopted son is a-getting ready to go
G                     D
  The candle wicks are asteriks
G                        C
  You carved him yourself out of sticks

[Verse 2]
G       D
  Apropos, had to go
G                       C
  He loved the Alps but he hated the snow
G              D
  Things switch, chop a new niche
G                          C
  Soon you won't remember oh which one is which

[Chorus 1]
Am                    G
  But your sorrow is so silly
D                             G
  What's there to keep him in Italy?
D                             G
  What's there to keep him in Italy?

[1 BAR D ST, TAP TO KEEP TIME]

[Verse 3]
G                             D
  He'll send you news how he, he took a cruise
G                          C
  He stuck his sea legs in the sailor's shoes
G            D
  And finally, across some sea
G                        C
  Find himself all kinds of the fineries

[Verse 4]
G                   D
  But he took a week, to learn how to speak
G                                  C
  But the language hurts, yeah the consonants tweak
G             D
  Mute malaise, heavy haze
G                       C
  The reparations only oh partly pays

[Chorus 2]
Am                    G
  But your sorrow is so silly
D                             G
  What's there to keep him in Italy?
D                             G
  What's there to keep him in Italy?
