In a picture in a plastic frame,

Eb
A snapshot black and white.

You were looking at my paper,

A brother and a sister,

And whoever took that picture

Verse 4

A brother needs a sister

To watch what he can do,

To protect and to torture,
Ab

To boss around—it's true

For a sister's love is pure,
Eb

Because she thinks he's wonderful

When he is not so sure.

In the picture there's a fender
Ab
Cm
Eb
Of our old Chevrolet

Or Pontiac—our dad would know,

It's true that time flies by

And in forty years the world has changed
Ab

Eb
As well as you and I.
