Syd Barrett Song — Words and music by Anthony Hill
Intro: B, A, B, A
Verse 1
B A B
I was getting a taxi from the station
B A B
To the little town where I knew you were waiting
B A B
You were holding a little sign that you made with my name on
B A B
You smiled when you saw me and I seem to recall you were waving
Bridge
B A B
As you looked my way and I saw your face
A B
A little tune in my head started to play
A B A F#
Chorus
B A B A
Bah ba—da ba ba—da bah ba—da da—da da doo—doo
B A B A
Doo do—do do do—do doo do—do do do do bah bah
B A B A
Bah ba—da ba ba—da bah ba—da da—da da doo—doo
B A B A
Doo do—do do do—do doo do—do do do do bah bah
Verse 2
B A B
I said "you look nice" in your denim skirt and leggings
B A B
You blushed and opened your mouth but I couldn't hear what you were saying
B A B
'Cos all I could think was "these shoes aren't waterproof and it's raining"
B A B
Heavy, heavy, heavy but everything is fine!
Bridge
B A B
As we walked hand in hand I felt my socks getting damp
A B
And that tune in my head going round and around and around
A B A F#
*Chorus*
Verse 3
B A B
I think of you everytime that I listen to Syd Barrett
B A B
I like you, I think you're cute and now I'm all embarrassed
B A B
There must be a way for me to say those three little words
B A B
That I keep trying to say but I don't want to sound like a fucking parrot
Bridge
B A B
That's when I listened to Syd and he told me what to do
A B
He said "you can't go wrong if you write her a song"
A B
So I've written this one for you
A B
It won't be the best you've heard
A B
It doesn't have that many words
A B
But it's got this tune, a little tune that gets in your head
A B A F#
Like the image of you in mine, like its stuck with glue — It's kinda catchy!
*Chorus* x 2
