Pretty Flamingo  

 

     F           C    F              C     F               C

1. On our floor all of our guys call her flamingo,

       F              G               C

    `cause her hair grows like the sun,

     F           G             C

    and her eyes can light the sky.

        F              C       F                   C     F            C

    When she walks, she looks so fine, like a flamingo,

      F             G             C

    crimson dress that clings so tight,

               F         G             C

    she`s out of reach and out of sight.

 

                            F           G                     C

When she walks by, she stirs up all the neighbourhood,

                 F                G

oh, every guy would make her his,

    C                       G

if he just could, if she just would.

 

       F                 C    F                    C        F           C

2. Some sweet day I`ll make her mine, pretty flamingo.

             F        G         C                          F    G            C

    And every guy will envy me, `cause paradise is where I`ll be.

      F        C  F         C     F           C

    Sha la la, la la la la, pretty flamingo.

      F        C  F         C     F           C

    Sha la la, la la la la, pretty flamingo.  + CHORUS

 

+  repeat verse 2
