[Intro 1]
[G][D]

[Verse 1]
I know [D]a gingerb[G]read g[Bm]irl w[D]ith diamonds
for eyes and a neck[A]lace of [E]pearls[D][G]
She's got a mes[D]sage for me she said I
[Bbaug]got to be free [F#]so stop follo[E]wing me[A][D]
I saw a [G]petulant [D]lip with a hint
of surprise what a colourful [A]trip[D][G]
I heard every word that [D]she said as [F#]we sat on
her bed we [E]got drunker [D]instead[G]
And when she [F]opened [A]up
I saw a [G]brimming cup
[Bm]I'm so glad that g[A]ingerbread
girl's been bred right
[G]

[Verse 2]
[D]
I know a [G]gingerbread [D]girl with her own pot
of honey and a head with no [A]curls[D][G]
She's got her [D]own recipe and [F#]she showed it
to me as [D]she sat on [E]my knee
We cooked till our [A]fingers were raw and when the oven
was [D]hot we opened the door
And on the tray [G]was revealed
a wound that was healed a fate that was sealed
And when she [F]laughs with [A]me
I know the [G]sky is free
[Bm]I'm so glad [D]that g[A]ingerbread girl's been

[Interlude 1]
bred right
[G][D][E][D][G][D]
[F#][D][E][D]

[Verse 3]
If you meet [G]gingerbread girl [D]tell her I'm
in [A]a h[D]urry and my head's in a[G] whirl
Is she as excited [D]as me to be or not [F#]to be[G]
[Bm]that's the [E]prospect [D]you see[G]
And when she [F]does [A]arrive
Her face will [G]touch the sky
[Bm]I'm so glad the ging[A]erbread girl's
[G]been [Bm]bred [A]right

[Outro 1]
