[E]What should I compare you to, that [B]sun on winter's [E]day?
[A]Tulips standing [E]proud and bright when [B]all around is g[B7]rey
[E]What should I compare you to, a [B]comet or a [E]star?
A [A]little flicker [E]where you've been or a [B]lighthouse where you [E]are?
Well [A]I'm a certain [E]person who [B]sees a sense of [E]life
That [A]hides behind the [E]glory days and [B]only shines at [E]night
Chorus:
You're just a little red [E]rooster; she's an old speckled [B]hen
You've [B7]fallen in love once before, now it's happening [E]agai[E7]n
Just do what you [A]use to, I'll [D]do what I [A]ca a a [F#m]an
And she'll be [E]once, twice, three times your [B]lady, and I'll be her [A]man[E]

[E]What should I compare you to, that [B]window facing [E]south?
That [A]captures sun in [E]tiny frames and [B]throws it round the h[B7]ouse
[E]What should I compare you to, a [B]compass or a [E]stone?
The [A]rock that holds the [E]whole thing down or the [B]hand that points you [E]home?
Well [A]I'm a certain [E]person who [B]sees a sense of [E]life
That [A]hides behind the [E]glory days and [B]only shines at [E]night
Repeat Chorus:
So [A]listen up you [E]middle aged or [B]slightly older [E]men
[A]If they look old to [E]you my friend, you [B]sure look old to [E]them
[A]Take this from the [E]rooster who [B]found his speckled [E]hen
It's [A]never down to [E]who you love; it's [B]purely down to [E]when
