Artist: Gilbert O'sullivan
I want to [A#]tell you
I might as [F]well do
about a [F7]girl I met back in [A#]May;
Her name is [A#]Rita
and you should [F]see her
when she goes [F7]ooh wakka doo wakka [A#]day.
She's got a [A#]brother
like any [F]other
who got his [F7]nose caught inside a [A#]gate;
and when they freed [A#]him
it so re[F]lieved him
he just went [F7]ooh wakka doo wakka [A#]day.
You wouldn't [Dm]think to look at me
that [Gm]I was strong
but under[Cm]neath it all
I really [F]am;
and just to [A#]prove it why
only the [Gm]other day
[G#] [C] - [Dm] - [D#] - [F]
i picked a needle up with one hand
Now up in [A#]Bradford,
a chap named [F]Radford
while taking [F7]part in a local [A#]play -
was inter[A#]cepted
and then sus[F]pected
of going [F7]ooh wakka doo wakka [A#]day-ay-ay-ay.
[A#]Who's that lady I [D#m]saw you with ?
[G#]It was not your [C#]wife
it [A#]looked to me sus[D#m]piciously.
Like [F#]someone I have never seen [F]before in my life.
It's not sur[Dm]prising
when you come to [Gm]think of it
just what it [Cm]is
that makes people [F]swear.
you only [A#]have to sing
about [Gm]bleepin' thing
and there'll be [G#]bleeping
[C] - [Dm] - [Cm] - [F]
ev'ry bleeping where.
Now if you [A#]love me
you're not [F]above me
if you [F7]don't well what can I [A#]say;
except we'll [A#]see when
you come to [F]tea then
you can go [F7]ooh wakka doo wakka
[D#m]ooh wakka doo wakka
[Cm]ooh wakka [F]doo-wakka [F#]day. [A#]
