There's a story in our town
                 F#m   B
Of the prettiest girl around
                E       B
Golden hair and eyes of blue
                     F#m      B
How those eyes could flash at you
                     F#m      B
How those eyes could flash at you
E                    B
Boys hung around her by the score

Not a care, this Teenage Queen
                 F#m     B
Not a care, this Teenage Queen
E                B
Other boys could offer more

But she loved the boy next door
                  F#m   B
Who worked at the candy store.

Workin' at the candy store.

Very soon she was a star
                 F#m    B
Pretty house and shiny cars
                    E     B
Swimming pool and a fence around
                   F#m     B
But she missed her old hometown
                   F#m     B
But she missed her old hometown
E                 B
All the world was at her door

All except the boy next door

Saddest girl we've ever seen.

Then one day the teenage star
                   F#m     B
Sold her house and all her cars
                E          B
Gave up all her wealth and fame
                F#m      B
Left it all and caught a train
                F#m      B
Left it all and caught a train
E            B
Do I have to tell you more
