    C        Am
She asks him why
          C     Am
why I'm a hairy guy
          C        Am
I'm hairy noon and nightie, night night
   C         Am
My hair is a fright
Em        C
I'm hairy high and low
Em           G
Don't ask me why
       Em       G
(Cause he don't know)
Em           C
It's not for lack of bread
Em                G
Like the Grateful Dead
F   G
Darling

Am              F
Gimme head with hair
Am             C
Long beautiful hair
Am       F
Shining, gleaming,
Am                 C
Streaming, flaxen, waxen

Em              C
Give me down to there (hair)
Em                 G
Shoulder length or longer (hair)

Em               G
Everywhere daddy daddy

F             G
Long as I can grow 
   C
My hair

Am     C          F
Let it fly in the breeze
        Am            C
And get caught in the trees
       Am          C           Am
Give a home to the fleas in my hair
  Em       C
A home for fleas
  Em       G
A hive for buzzing bees
  Em
A nest for birds
      C
There ain't no words
        Em                        G
For the beauty, the splendor, the wonder

Of my...

I want it long, straight, curly, fuzzy
C               Em
Snaggy, shaggy, ratty, matty
Am            C
Oily, greasy, fleecy
         Em
Shining, gleaming, streaming

Knotted, polka-dotted
F                G
Twisted, beaded, braided

Powdered, flowered, and confettied
G                 Am               G
Bangled, tangled, spangled, and spaghettied!

G  Am          C
Oh say can you see
   Am   C  Em  G
My eyes if you can

(Then my hair's too short)

Am
Down to here
F
Down to there
Am
Down to where
   F
It stops by itself
