The Oak Ridge Boys - Freckles

^GThey'd all called her Freckles when summer was coming a^Cround All the ^Dkids that were running and laughing and some turned to ^Gbrown And ^GI'd find her crying and hurt by the words that they ^Csaid And ^Dfollow her home just trying to be her ^Gfriend

And I'd say ^GFreckles you're ^Empretty There's a ^Crainbow on your face^G Do you ^Cwant to know a ^Gsecret? None of ^Emthem could ^Ctake your ^Dplace Cause your ^Gdifferent and ^Emspecial And she'd ^Chold my hand and sigh^G And say I ^Calways want to ^Dsee me through your ^Geyes

But ^Gsummers just turned into winters and then into ^Cyears And ^Dslowly the smile of a woman replaced all her ^Gtears And ^Gsome how I knew in a while that my friend would be ^Cgone As ^DI watched a sad ugly duckling turn into a ^Gswan

And I said ^GFreckles you're ^Emspecial And she'd ^Chold my hold and sigh^G And say I ^Calways want to ^Dsee me through your ^Geyes

But ^Gsoon she was flying, dancing laughing and ^Cproud And ^DI took my place, a face alone in a ^Gcrowd Knowing her lovers can't see past her smooth golden ^Cskin And ^Dthat's how I know that Freckles will come back a^Ggain

And I'll say ^GFreckles I ^Emlove you There's a ^Crainbow on your face^G Cause she'll be ^Csmiling through her ^Gteardrops As she r^Emuns to ^Cmy em^Dbrace ^GFreckles you're ^Emspecial And she'll ^Ctake my hand and sigh^G And say I ^Conly want to ^Dsee me through your ^Geyes And I'll say ^GFreckles I ^Emlove you There's a ^Crainbow on your face^G Cause she'll be ^Csmiling through
