Intro

BF#
This is a story 'bout a girl that I knew
B
she didn't like my songs
F#
and that made me feel blue
D#C#E
she said: "a big band is far better than you"...
[Part I]
~~~~~~~
AD#11/A#Bm7E
She don't rock 'n' roll, she don't like it
AD#11/A#Bm7E
she don't do the stroll, well she don't do it right
AA7DDm
well, ev'rythings wrong and my patience was gone
A
when I woke one morning
E
and remembered this song
AD#11/A#Bm7E
O-oh-oh, kinda catchy,
AD#11/A#Bm7E
I hoped
AA7
that she would talk to me now
DDmA
and even allow me to hold her hand
E
and forget that old band.
[Part II]

DDmAA7
I strolled around to her pad
DDmAE
her light was off and that's bad
DDmAF#
her sister said that my girl was gone
BE
"But come inside, boy, and play, play, play me a song!"
Additional Lyrics:
(w/PART I)
I said "Yeah! Here I go"
She's kinda cute, don't you know?
That after a while of seeing her smile
I knew we could make it, make it in style!
(w/PART II)
So now I've got all I need
She and I are in love, we've agreed
she likes this song and my others too
so now you see my world is...
because of this tune!
(w/PART I)
What a boon this tune!
I tell you soon
We'll be lying in bed, happily wed,
and I won't think of that girl
or what she said...
