 There's a lake  in the park,  there's a house  by the lake;
 There's a girl  in the house  in the park  by the lake;
 And the girl  in the house  by the lake  in the park
 Is The Girl  In The Little  Green Hat.
 And tonight  after eight,  that's when I've  got a date;
 When the moon's  riding high  and the stars  light the sky;
 With the girl  in the house  by the lake  in the park;
 The Girl  In The Little  Green Hat.
 There’s no water  in the lake,  there’s no  roof upon the house;
 No trees-es  in the park  at all;
 But I'll wait  beside the lake,  I'll be welcome  at the house;
 I'll meet  her by the garden wall.
 There's a ship  on the lake,  There's a sailor  on the shore;
 There's a girl  in his arms,  she's the girl  I adore;
 So goodbye  to the house  by the lake  in the park;
 And the Girl  In The Little  Green Hat.
 There's a storm  on the lake,  there's a ship  in the storm;
 There's a girl  on the ship  in the storm  on the lake;
 And the girl  on the lake  on the ship  in the storm
 Is The Girl  In The Little  Green Hat.
 As the ship  starts to dip,  she is losing  her grip;
 Every dip  makes her tip,  not the girl,  but the ship;
 But the girl  on the ship  has the pip  from the trip;
 The Girl  In The Little  Green Hat.
 She's been sailing  quite enough,  she's been clinging  to the rails;
 She's dying  to be home  once more;
 'Cause the lake  is rather rough,  And the girl  is rather pale;
 She's glad  to get her feet  on shore.
 Ah, she gave  up the ship,  And the captain  and his men
 For a round  ticket trip  to my arms  once again;
 Now I'm back  in the park  at the house  by the lake;
 With The Girl  In The Little  Green Hat.
 Cheers, and good luck.

Readable chord sheet for The Girl In The Little Green Hat by Will Young

There's a [C]lake in the [G]park, there's a [C]house by the [G]lake;
There's a [C]girl in the [F]house in the [G]park by the [Am]lake;
And the [Dm]girl in the [F]house by the [C]lake in the [G]park
Is The [F]Girl In The [G]Little Green [C]Hat.

And to[C]night after [G]eight, that's when [C]I've got a [G]date;
When the [C]moon's riding [F]high and the [G]stars light the [Am]sky;
With the [Dm]girl in the [F]house by the [C]lake in the [G]park;
The [F]Girl In The [G]Little Green [C]Hat.

There’s no [E]water in the [B]lake, there’s [E]no roof upon the [B]house;
No [E]trees-es in the [B]park at [E]all;
But I'll [G]wait beside the [D]lake, I'll be [G]welcome at the [D]house;
I'll [G]meet her by the [D]garden [G]wall.

There's a [C]ship on the [G]lake, There's a [C]sailor on the [G]shore;
There's a [C]girl in his [F]arms, she's the [G]girl I a[Am]dore;
So good[Dm]bye to the [F]house by the [C]lake in the [G]park;
And the [F]Girl In The [G]Little Green [C]Hat.

There's a [C]storm on the [G]lake, there's a [C]ship in the [G]storm;
There's a [C]girl on the [F]ship in the [G]storm on the [Am]lake;
And the [Dm]girl on the [F]lake on the [C]ship in the [G]storm
Is The [F]Girl In The [G]Little Green [C]Hat.

As the [C]ship starts to [G]dip, she is [C]losing her [G]grip;
Every [C]dip makes her [F]tip, not the [G]girl, but the [Am]ship;
But the [Dm]girl on the [F]ship has the [C]pip from the [G]trip;
The [F]Girl In The [G]Little Green [C]Hat.

She's been [E]sailing quite e[B]nough, she's been [E]clinging to the [B]rails;
She's [E]dying to be [B]home once [E]more;
'Cause the [G]lake is rather [D]rough, And the [G]girl is rather [D]pale;
She's [G]glad to get her [D]feet on [G]shore.

Ah, she [C]gave up the [G]ship, And the [C]captain and his [G]men
For a [C]round ticket [F]trip to my [G]arms once [Am]again;
Now I'm [Dm]back in the [F]park at the [C]house by the [G]lake;
With The [F]Girl In The [G]Little Green [C]Hat.

Cheers, and good luck.
