A Eadd6 E/B
Dadd6 D Dadd7 Bm
[Verse 1]
A Eadd6 E/B Congratulations/ Alexa! / Dadd6 D Dadd7 Bm Today is your day. / A Eadd6 E/B You’re off to Great Places! / Dadd6 D Dadd7 Bm You’re off and away! / A Eadd6 E/B Cause you have brains in your head. / Dadd6 D Dadd7 Bm You have feet in your shoes. / A Eadd6 E/B Dadd6 D Dadd7 Bm You can steer yourself any / direction you choose. / A Eadd6 E/B You’re on your own. And you know what you know. / Dadd6 D Dadd7 Bm YOU are the girl who’ll decide where to go. /
[Verse 2]
A Eadd6 E/B You’ll look up and down streets. / Dadd6 D Dadd7 Bm Look’em over with care. / A Eadd6 E/B Dadd6 D Dadd7 About some you will say, / “I don’t choose to go there.” / Bm A Eadd6 E/B With your head full of brains and your shoes full of feet, / Dadd6 D Dadd7 Bm you’re too smart to go down a not-so-good street. / A Eadd6 E/B Dadd6 D Dadd7 Bm And you may not find /any you’ll want to go down. / A Eadd6 E/B In that case, of course, you’ll head straight out of town. / Dadd6 D Dadd7 Bm It’s opener there in the wide open air. / A Eadd6 E/B Out there things can happen/ and frequently do Dadd6 D Dadd7 Bm To people as brainy and footsy as you. / A Eadd6 E/B And when things start to happen, don’t worry. Don’t stew. / Dadd6 D Dadd7 Bm Just go right along. You’ll start happening too. /
[Chorus]
A Eadd6 E/B Dadd6 D Dadd7 Bm Oh! The Places You’ll Go! / Ooooohhhh/ A You’ll be on your way up! / Eadd6 E/B You’ll be seeing great sights! / Dadd6 D Dadd7 Bm You’ll join the high fliers/ who soar to high heights. / A Eadd6 E/B You won’t lag behind, because you’ll have the speed. / Dadd6 Dadd7 Bm You’ll pass the whole gang and soon take the lead. / A Eadd6 E/B Wherever you fly, you’ll be best of the best. / Dadd6 D Dadd7 Bm Wherever you go, you will top all the rest. /
[Bridge]
A* D* Except when you don’t. / A* D* Because, sometimes, you won’t. / A* A* A* D* D* D* I’m sorry to say so / but, sadly, it’s true / A* A* A* D* D* A* That bang-ups and Hang-ups can happen to yooooooou. /
[Verse 3]
A Eadd6 E/B You can get all hung up in a prickle-ly perch/ Dadd6 D Dadd7 Bm And your gang will fly on. You’ll be left in a Lurch. / A Eadd6 E/B You’ll come down from the Lurch with an unpleasant bump. / Dadd6 D Dadd7 Bm And the chances are, then, that you’ll be in a Slump. / A Eadd6 E/B And when you’re in a Slump, you’re not in for much fun. / Dadd6 D Dadd7 Bm Un-slumping yourself is not easily done. /
[Verse 4]
A Eadd6 E/B You’ll get mixed up, of course, as you already know. / Dadd6 D Dadd7 Bm You’ll get mixed up with many strange birds as you go. / A Eadd6 E/B So be sure when you step. / Step with care and great tact /and Dadd6 D Dadd7 Bm remember that Life’s a Great Balancing Act. / A Eadd6 E/B Just never forget to be dexterous and deft. / Dadd6 D Dadd7 Bm x2 And never mix up your right foot with your left /
[Bridge]
A* D* And will you succeed? / D* A* D* Yes! You will, indeed! / D* A * D* A* (98- and three-quarter percent guaranteed.) /
[Outro]
A Eadd6 E/B add6 D Dadd7 Bm Alexa, / you’ll move mountains! / A Eadd6 E/B So…be your name Buxbaum or Bixby or Bray, / Dadd6 D Dadd7 Bm or Mordecai Ale Van Allen O’Shea, / A Eadd6 E/B you’re off to Great Places! / Dadd6 D Dadd7 Bm Today is your day! / A Eadd6 E/B Your mountain is waiting. /
Dadd6 Dadd7 Bm A
So Alexa… get on your way!
