Knowing her lovers can't see past her smooth golden skin
D MajorD G+G
And that's how I know that Freckles will come back again

G+G E minorEm
And I'll say Freckles I love you
C majorC G+G
There's a rainbow on your face
C majorC G+G
Cause she'll be smiling through her teardrops

As she runs to my embrace

Freckles you're special
