Verse 1
Bbm7
Now in my younger days
Ab
I used to sport a shag
Gbmaj7
When I went to school
Fm7
I carried lunch in a bag
Bbm7
With an apple for my teacher
Ab
'cause I knew I'd get a kiss
Gbmaj7
Always got mad
Ab
when the class was dismissed
Bbm7
But when it was in session,
Ab
I always had a question
Gbmaj7
I would raise my hand
Fm7
to make her stagger to my desk
Bbm7
and he helped me with my problem,
Gbmaj7
Just a trick, to smell her scent
Ab
and try to sneak a touch
Verse 2
Bbm7
Oh, how I wish
Ab
I could hold her hand
Gbmaj7
and give her a hug
Fm7
Bbm7
She was married to the man, he was a thug
Ab
His name was Lee, he drove a Z
He'd pick her up from school
Gbmaj7
Fm7
promptly at three o'clock
Bbm7
Ab
I was on her jock, yes indeedy,
Gbmaj7
I wrote graffiti on the bus
Fm7
First I'd write her name then carve a plus
Bbm7
Ab
With my name last, on the looking glass
Gbmaj7
I seen her yesterday
Chorus 1
but still I had to let her pass

Verse 3
Bbm7
When I dream of fairytales
Ab
I think of me and Shelly
Gbmaj7
See she's my type of hype
Fm7
and I can't stand when brothers tell me
Bbm7
That I should quit chasing
Ab
and look for something better
Gbmaj7
But the smile that she shows
Fm7
makes me a go-getter
Bbm7
I haven't gone as far as asking
Ab
if I could get with her
Gbmaj7
I just play love by ear
Fm7
and hope she gets the picture
Bbm7
I'm shooting for her heart,
Ab
got my finger on the trigger
Gbmaj7
She could be my broad, and I could be her...
Verse 4
Bbm7
Ab
All I can do is stare
Gbmaj7
Back as kids we used to kiss
Fm7
when we played truth or dare
Bbm7
Now she's more sophisticated,
Gbmaj7
Not at all overrated,
Fm7
I think I need a prayer
Bbm7
Ab
To get in her book and it looks rather dry
Gbmaj7
I guess a twinkle in her eye
Fm7
is just a twinkle in her eye
Bbm7
Although she's crazy stepping,
Ab
I'll try to stop her stride
Gbmaj7
'Cause I won't have no more
Fm7
of this passing me by
Verse 5
Bbm7
(It's time for me to) voice my opinion,
Ab
can't be pretending she didn't have me
Gbmaj7
Sprung like a chicken,
Fm7
chasin' my tail like a doggy
Bbm7
She was kind of like a star,
Ab
thinking I was like a fan
Gbmaj7
Fm7
Damn, she looked good, downside,
she had a man
Bbm7
Ab
He was a rooty-toot, a nincompoop
Gbmaj7
She told me soon your little birdy's
Fm7
gonna fly the coop
Bbm7
She was a flake like corn,
Ab
Gbmaj7
and I was born not to understand
By letting her pass
Chorus 2
I proved to be a better man

Verse 6
Bbm7
Now there she goes again,
Ab
the dopest Ethiopian
Gbmaj7
And now the world around me
Fm7
begins moving in slow motion
Bbm7
Whenever she happens to walk by,
Ab
why does the apple of my eye
Gbmaj7
Overlook and disregard my feelings
Fm7
no matter how much I try?
Bbm7
Wait, no, I did not really
Ab
Gbmaj7
pursue my little princess with persistence
And I was so low-key
Fm7
Bbm7
that she was unaware of my existence
Ab
From a distance I desired her,
Gbmaj7
secretly admired her
Fm7
Wired her a letter to get her, and it went
Verse 7
Bbm7
My dear, my dear, my dear,
Gbmaj7
but I know you very well
Now let me tell you
Fm7
'bout the feelings I have for you
Ab
or make some sort of attempt, I simp
Damn, I wish I wasn't such a wimp
Bbm7
'Cause then I would let you know
that I love you so
Ab
And if I was your man then I would be true
Gbmaj7
The only lying I would do
Fm7
is in the bed with you
Bbm7
Then I signed sincerely
Ab
the one who loves you dearly,
PS love me tender
Gbmaj7
But the letter came back three days later,
Chorus 3
return to sender
