Ode To My Hippy- Baby Friends

hippy-painting

I have a half dozen friends

who all share the same name

and

who to this day

all go by nickname based on their real name.

Why?

Because their parents were total hippies and named them after a song about a floozy named

Cecilia.

CECILIA- Simon and Garfunkel

CHORUS:
F                Bb          F
Cecilia, you’re breaking my heart
          Bb         F         C
You’re shaking my confidence daily
      Bb F        Bb         F
Oh Cecilia, I’m down on my knees
       Bb         F             C
I’m begging you please to come home
         F
Come on home

CHORUS

F                   Bb   F
Making love in the afternoon with Cecilia
Bb    C     F
Up in my bedroom
             Bb       F
I got up to wash my face
                     Bb
When I come back to bed
           C         F
Someone’s taken my place …CHORUS

F               Bb F Bb F C
Bo po bo bo …

     Bb  F       Bb        F
Jubilation, she loves me again
   Bb          F             C
I fall on the floor and I laughing
     Bb  F       Bb        F
Jubilation, she loves me again
   Bb          F             C
I fall on the floor and I laughing
       Bb F  Bb F  Bb F C
Wo ho oooh …

  1. Hi N.M.
    I’ll tell you a couple because they’ve told the story themselves, the other ones-
    Oh No Way.

    Here we go : Lia , Cila and Sal.
    Nothing weird or fancy- they just didn’t want to be named for a well, a free love advocate
    😉
