THE SONG
Amb5
Early each day to the steps of Saint Paul's
___
The little old bird woman comes
Amb5
In her own special way to the people she calls,
___
"Come, buy my bags full of crumbs;
___
Come feed the little birds,
___
Show them you care
___ #5
And you'll be glad if you do........
Amb5
Their young ones are hungry, Their nests are so bare
All it takes is tuppence from you.......
Feed the birds, tuppence a bag
Tuppence, tuppence, tuppence a bag
Feed the birds," that's what she cries
[1 2 -Pause- 3 ]
While over--head, her birds fill the skies All a-
-round the ca--thedral the saints and a--postles
___
Look down as she sells her wares
Al--though you can't see it,
You know they are smiling
Each time someone shows that he cares......
Though her words are simple and few
Listen, listen, she's calling to you
"Feed the birds, tuppence a bag
Tuppence, tuppence, tuppence a bag"
Instrumental ('all around the cathedral...')
___
Though her words are simple and few
Listen, listen, she's calling to you
"Feed the birds, tuppence a bag

Tuppence, tuppence, tuppence | a...

NOTES
Any time you see this ___ it means another bar playing the same chord.
If you don't feel like playing the coda where it briefly changes key to
(Concert ) major, then just finish by playing a on 'bag' and no one will
know the difference.
Please don't forget to rate, and if you've spotted something that I haven't
then leave a comment.
