VERSE 1:
[Am] She was not the [D]girl next door
But the [G]girl from 'round the [C]corner
[Am] S'at the tail end [D]of grade four
When she [G]came to school one [C]morning
[C] All eyes were u[D]pon her[G] as she [G/F#]took her [Em]seat
[C] Her name was A[D]manda,[G] with pretty [G/F#]eyes of [Em]green
And hair of [C]blonde[D], strawberry [G]blonde

VERSE 2:
Springtime and dandelions
And summer 'round the corner
At the tail end of age nine
With a million dreams before her
She lived with her mother in an old decrepit house
If there was trouble at home she kept it to herself
All summer long, the strawberry blonde

CHORUS 1:
[Em] And by her [Bm]face[C] there was no [G]way to tell
[C] It seemed like [G]all was well[D] in her world[B7]
[Em] But the neighbours [Bm]said[C] her mother had[G] lost her will
[C] To gin and [G]sleeping pills
It [D]was no life for a little [G]girl

CHORUS 2:
Still I see her face framed in blue sky
At the top of a slide coming down
And when the sirens wailed her mother had failed to rise
All the neighbours stood outside
As Amanda just stared at the ground

VERSE 3:
Time flies and years are piled
I'd forgotten all about her
When I saw her down the aisle
Of a streetcar with her daughter
Then I heard Amanda say as she got up
"C'mon Samantha, girl this is our stop"
And they were [C]gone,[D][C]
[D] Two strawberry [G]blond[Gadd2]es[G]
