This was always one of my favorite songs on Sesame Street. If I remember correctly, it came out sometime around '83. I wanted to teach it to my niece and nephews but couldn't find any chords for it online, so I thought I'd remedy that. The verses all follow the same progression. VERSE 1: C My hair is black and red F C My hair is yellow F C G My eyes are brown and green and blue C My name is Jack and Fred F C My name's Amanda Sue F C I'm called Kareem Abdu G C My name is you. VERSE 2: C I live in Southern France F C I'm from a Texas ranch F C G I come from Mecca and Peru C I live across the street F C In the mountains, on the beach [ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/s/sesame-street/375757.html ] F C I come from everywhere G C And my name is you. CHORUS: F C We all sing with the same voice G The same song C The same voice F C F We all sing with the same voice G C And we sing in harmony. VERSE 3: Sometimes I get mad and mean Sometimes I feel happy And when I want to cry, I do. When I'm by myself at night, I hold my teddy tight Until the morning light My name is you. VERSE 4: I have sisters one, two, three In my family, there's just me I've got one daddy, I've got two Grandpa helps me cross the street My cat walks on furry feet I love my parakeet My name is you. CHORUS VERSE 5: I like to run and climb I like to sit and read I like to watch my TV, too And when it's time for bed, I like my stories read, "Sweet dreams" and "love you" said My name is you.
