Ooh baby Ooh said Ooh

     C majorC             D MajorD
And the days go by like a strand in the wind

      E minorEm
In the web that is my own I begin again

 C majorC             D MajorD           E minorEm
Said to my friend, Baby, nothing else mattered

 C majorC        D MajorD      E minorEm
He was no more than a baby then

     C majorC             D MajorD
Well he seemed broken-hearted

          E minorEm
Something within him

      C majorC         D MajorD    E minorEm
But the moment that I first laid eyes on him

          C majorC    D MajorD     E minorEm
All alone on the edge of seventeen


          C majorC             D MajorD
Just like the white winged dove sings a song sounds like shes singin

 E minorEm
Ooh baby Ooh said Ooh

          C majorC             D MajorD
Just like the white winged dove sings a song sounds like shes singin

 E minorEm
Ooh baby Ooh said Ooh

    C majorC         D MajorD            E minorEm
Well I went today maybe I will go again tomorrow

      C majorC           D MajorD          E minorEm
And the music there well it was hauntingly familiar

     C majorC            D MajorD
When I see you doin what I try to do for me

     E minorEm
With the words from a poet and a voice from a choir

    C majorC    D MajorD          E minorEm
And a melody, nothin else mattered


          C majorC             D MajorD
Just like the white winged dove sings a song sounds like shes singin

 E minorEm
Ooh baby Ooh said Ooh

          C majorC             D MajorD
Just like the white winged dove sings a song sounds like shes singin

 E minorEm
Ooh baby Ooh said Ooh


     E minorEm        D MajorD         C majorC       D MajorD      C majorC
The clouds never expect it when it rains but the sea changes color

      D MajorD          C majorC      D MajorD
But the sea does not change

 E minorEm         D MajorD        C majorC       D MajorD
So with the slow sad graceful glow of age

       C majorC        D MajorD     C majorC      D MajorD
I went forth with an age old desire to please

     C majorC     D MajorD     C majorC   D MajorD
On the edge of seventeen


Ooh............


          C majorC             D MajorD
Just like the white winged dove sings a song sounds like shes singin

 E minorEm
Ooh baby Ooh said Ooh

          C majorC             D MajorD
Just like the white winged dove sings a song sounds like shes singin

 E minorEm
Ooh baby Ooh said Ooh


      C majorC          D MajorD                  E minorEm
Well then suddenly there was noone left standin in the hallway

           C majorC         D MajorD              E minorEm
Yeah Yeah, in a flood of tears that noone really ever heard fall at all

          C majorC                D MajorD
Well I went searchin for an answer up the stairs and down the hall

 E minorEm                              C majorC     D MajorD
Not to find an answer but just to hear the call of a nightbird

      E minorEm
Singin come away, come away, come away


          C majorC             D MajorD
Just like the white winged dove sings a song sounds like shes singin

 E minorEm
Ooh baby Ooh said Ooh

          C majorC             D MajorD
Just like the white winged dove sings a song sounds like shes singin

 E minorEm
Ooh baby Ooh said Ooh


    E minorEm           D MajorD      E minorEm        D MajorD
Well I hear you in the mornin' and I hear you at nightfall

    E minorEm          D MajorD     E minorEm    D MajorD       C majorC  D MajorD      E minorEm
And sometimes to be near you is to be unable to hear you my love

          C majorC      D MajorD      E minorEm
Im a few years older than you my love


          C majorC             D MajorD
Just like the white winged dove sings a song sounds like shes singin

 E minorEm
Ooh baby Ooh said Ooh
