He was buy ing a cup of coffee,

D
Two weeks later she saw him
F#
she held the doors for him.
And he said, thanks,
F#
For her it don't take much,
But this is not your or

F#m
Cause she works in the base ment
G
near the boiler room door

And he works in account

D
Now I'm not much of a mathematician,
Bb
In a building of 37 floor
D
Her chances of running into
G
him are really not too good
A
Even though she hung it out the canteen and wrote the elevator,
F#
every spare minute she could
Bm
Cause she's in love,
F#
and she don't even know his name
It was
Edward

and love can be such a cruel, game

And by the way,
did I happen to mention
A
that when this building was constructed
Bm
it was done improperly.
A
An d one day on the fourth floor there
Bm
was a short in the electricity.
A
It burned up walls and desks and chairs
Bm
and all the secretaries.
A
Bm
The alarm did not go off until it reached floor thirty -three,
A
floor thirty -three, floor thirty -three.
Bm
A
And on the upper floors people were running and screaming and
jumping out the windows to get away from the flames.
Bm
A
Now the woman in the basement,
Bm
she raced up the stairs
A
Bm
Out the emergency exit, into the fresh air
Bm
because just then it began to shower
saw her true love coming
Bm
A
B
Woo -oo -oo -oo.
Bm
D
I'm not much of a mathematician,
G
Bb
but even I can see the chances
A
of him landing on her were very slim,
indeed.
But he did.
D
So they buried them together
A
And even now, when I ride the elevator,
D
Bm
I can hear someone say
She was in love,
F#
for her it didn't take much
A
Bm
A
but this was not your ordinary office crush
Bm
F#m
Cause she worked in the basement
G
near the boiler room door
D
A
And he worked in accounting
G
Bb
on the 37th floor
A
Bm
F#m
Yeah, she worked in the basement
D
A
But fate brought them together,
G
F#
Bb
parted nevermore
