  C
 
I often sit alone up in a tree
 
C
 
waving to the ones that wave at me
 
| D | G5/D |
 
  C                   E
 
I think well just how stupid can they be
 
| Dm | Ddim/G# |
 
G7          G           C
 
waving to a man up in a tree
 
C
 
what they don't know is I am counting them
 
  C
 
I even count the ladies and the men
 
| D | G5/D |
 
  C               E
 
I put the numbers in my little book
 
| Dm | Ddim/G# |
 
    G7          G           C
 
and only me can ever have a look
 
F              Em
 
all I ask is a piece of mind
 
        G7                              C
 
which I lost somewhere down amongst the mess
 
D
 
all I want is for people to be kind
 
         Dm                             G
 
and walk slower to be counted when they pass
 
| C | D | G5/D |
 
C                     E
 
I think well just how stupid can they be
 
| Dm | Ddim/G# |
 
G7          G           C
 
waving to a man up in a tree
 
C
 
I know that I will have to stop my fun
 
C
 
when I meet a girl who I can not count on
 
| D | G5/D |
 
C                   E
 
maybe marry her and happy we would be
 
| Dm | Ddim/G# |
 
    G7                G            C
 
not counting but just sitting up a tree

I put the numbers in my little book
 
| Dm | Ddim/G# |
 
    G7          G           C
 
and only me can ever have a look
 
  C                   E
 
I think well just how stupid can they be
 
| Dm | Ddim/G# |
 
G7          G           C
 
waving to a man up in a tree
