Hold your head up, you silly girl, look what you've done!
         Em                   A
When you find yourself in the thick of it,
Em                 A                  Bm                Em
help yourself to a bit of what is all around you, silly girl!

       Bm        E
Take a good look around you,
       Bm        E                   A
take a good look around to see, that you and me
     G                     Bm           Em    C
were meant to be with each other, silly girl.
