Intro
[Em]
Chorus
Just like the [C]white-winged dove sings a [D]song sounds like she's singin'
[Em]Ooh Ooh Ooh
Just like the [C]white-winged dove sings a [D]song sounds like she's singin'
[Em]Ooh baby Ooh said Ooh
Verse
And the [C]days go by like a [D]strand in the wind
In the [Em]web that is my own I begin again
[C]Said to my friend, [D]baby, nothing else [Em]mattered
[C]He was no more (he was no [D]more) than a [Em]baby then
Well, he [C] seemed broken-hearted[D]
Something [Em]within him
Chorus
But the [C]moment that I [D]first laid [Em]eyes on him
All alone on [C]the edge of [D] [Em]seventeen
Chorus
Just like the [C]white-winged dove sings a [D]song sounds like she's singin'
[Em]Ooh baby Ooh said Ooh
Just like the [C]white-winged dove sings a [D]song sounds like she's singin'
[Em]Ooh baby Ooh said Ooh
Verse
Well, I [C]went today, maybe [D]I will go again [Em]tomorrow
Yeah yeah, and the [C]music there well it was [D] hauntingly [Em]familiar
When I [C]see you doin' what I [D]try to do for me
With the [Em] words from a poet and a voice from a choir
And a [C]melody, [D] nothin' else [Em]mattered
Chorus
Just like the [C]white-winged dove sings a [D]song sounds like she's singin'
[Em]Ooh baby Ooh said Ooh
Just like the [C]white-winged dove sings a [D]song sounds like she's singin'
[Em]Ooh baby Ooh said Ooh
Bridge
The [Em]clouds never [D]expect it when it [C]rains but the sea [D] changes [C]color
But the sea [D] does not [C]change[D]
[Em]So with the slow[D] graceful [C]glow of age[D]
I went [C]forth with an [D]age-old [C]desire to [D]please
On the [C]edge of [D][C]seventeen[D]
[Em][C]Ooh............[Em][D]
Chorus
Just like the [C]white-winged dove sings a [D]song sounds like she's singin'
[Em]Ooh baby Ooh said Ooh
Just like the [C]white-winged dove sings a [D]song sounds like she's singin'
[Em]Ooh baby Ooh said Ooh
Verse
Well, then [C]suddenly there was [D]no one left standin' in the [Em]hall
Yeah yeah, in a [C]flood of tears that [D]no one really ever heard [Em]fall at all
Well, I went [C]searchin' for an answer up the [D]stairs and down the hall
[Em]Not to find an answer but just to hear the call of a [C]nightbird[D]
Singin' [Em]come away, (come away, come away)
Chorus
Just like the [C]white-winged dove sings a [D]song sounds like she's singin'
[Em]Ooh baby Ooh said Ooh
Just like the [C]white-winged dove sings a [D]song sounds like she's singin'
[Em]Ooh baby Ooh said Ooh
Bridge
Well, I [Em]hear you in the [D]mornin' and I [Em]hear you at [D]nightfall
And [Em]sometimes to be [D]near you is [Em]to be [D]unable to [C]feel you [D] my [Em]love
I'm a few years [C]older than you [D] my [Em]love
Chorus
Just like the [C]white-winged dove sings a [D]song sounds like she's singin'
[Em]Ooh baby Ooh said Ooh
(fade out while repeating chorus)
