Five foot two
Eyes of blue
Oh what those five foot can do
Has anybody seen my gal?
If you run into five foot two
Covered in pearls
Diamond rings
All those things
Bet your life it isn't her
Could she love?
Could she woo?
Could could she cootchie cootchie coo?
Has any body seen my gal?

RtS from memory, at work, can't burst into song to check, doesn't know sh*t about chords, sorry.

Turned up nose

Has anybody seen my gal?

Sorry

FIVE FOOT TWO, EYES OF BLUE

Five foot two, eyes of blue
But oh, what those five foot could do.
Has anybody seen my girl?
Turned up nose, turned down hose,
All dressed up in fancy clothes,
Has anybody seen my girl?
Now if you run into a five foot two
Covered in fur,
Diamond rings and all those things,
Bet-cha life it isn't her.
But could she love, could she woo?
Could she, could she, could she coo?
Has anybody seen my girl?

Five foot two, eyes of blue
But oh, what those five foot could do.
Has anybody seen my girl?
Turned up nose, turned down hose,
All dressed up in fancy clothes,
Has anybody seen my girl?
Now if you run into a five foot two
Covered in fur,
Diamond rings and all those things,
Bet-cha life it isn't her.
But could she love, could she woo?
Could she, could she, could she coo?
Has anybody seen my...
Has anybody seen my...
Has anybody seen my girl?

A friend of mine sings a parody of this song

He's so good, he's so fine,
He turns water into wine,
Has anybody seen JC?
He's so good, he's so cool,
His just walked across my pool,
Has anybody seen JC?
So if you bump into a 5-foot Jew,
Covered in thorns-------etc.

I won't finish it as it's a bit *****

There's more to this one (I must have found the sheet music once). It includes the long-forgotten verses - now you'll see WHY they were forgotten.

I've added some simplified chords for the chorus, but haven't the foggiest idea about the verses.

Five Foot Two (Eyes Of Blue)
Lyrics by Sam M. Lewis and Joe Young. Music by Ray Henderson, 1925

I just saw a maniac, maniac, maniac,
Wild, and tearing his hair,
Jumping like a jumpin' jack, jumpin' jack, jumpin' jack,
Child, you should have been there,
Laughed so loud I though that I would cave in,
When I heard that silly, daffydilly ravin':

CHORUS
[C]Five foot two, [E7]eyes of blue,
But, [A7]oh! what those five feet could do,
Has [D7]anybody [G]seen [G7]my [C]girl? [G7]

[C]Turned-up nose, [E7]turned-down hose,
[A7]Never had no other beaus,
Has [D7]anybody [G]seen [G7]my [C]girl? [F] [C]

Now if you [E]run into a five foot [E7]two,
[A7]Covered with fur,
[D7]Diamond rings and all those things,
[G]Betcha' life it [G7]isn't her,

But [C]could she love, [E7]could she woo?
[A7]Could she, could she, could she coo?
Has [D7]anybody [G]seen [G7]my [C]girl?

Love made him a lunatic, lunatic, lunatic,
Gee! He hollered and cried,
Like a monkey on a stick, on a stick, on a stick,
He was fit to be tied.
When we asked him for his wife's description,
He just answered all of us with this conniption:

Here's a link to a digital download website that shows you the sheet music (including chords) and plays the music for you. Apart from the fist page it's heavily marked "Preview" but it's perfectly possible to decipher the chords.
