Giupetto
From Vic's 1990 album "Little"

[Verse 1]
G D
Giupetto, Pinnochio
G C
Your adopted son is a-getting ready to go
G D
The candle wicks are asteriks
G C
You carved him yourself out of sticks

[Verse 2]
G D
Apropos, had to go
G C
He loved the Alps but he hated the snow
G D
Things switch, chop a new niche
G C
Soon you won't remember oh which one is which

[Chorus 1]
Am G
But your sorrow is so silly
D G
What's there to keep him in Italy?
D G
What's there to keep him in Italy?

[1 BAR REST, TAP TO KEEP TIME]

[Verse 3]
G D
He'll send you news how he, he took a cruise
G C
He stuck his sea legs in the sailor's shoes
G D
And finally, across some sea
G C
Find himself all kinds of the fineries

[Verse 4]
G D
But he took a week, to learn how to speak
G C
But the language hurts, yeah the consonants tweak
G D
Mute malaise, heavy haze
G C
The reparations only oh partly pays

[Chorus 2]
Am G
But your sorrow is so silly
D G
What's there to keep him in Italy?
D G
What's there to keep him in Italy?
