         Bm                        F#m
Even though he was obscene
               A                E
He fell in love at just nineteen
           D           Bm          E                             A
with a younger girl who didn't feel the same
          Bm                  F#m             E
All his friends would gossip and say
A                                        E 
That she would leave some day
        D               Bm                          E
But he liked to think, of things that could be
A                 E
So naive at nineteen
      Bm                        F#m
He treated her like a great piece of gold
           E
while she, thought that he too old
        Bm                              F#m
He claimed that love, didn't have an age
         E
And when she denied him, all their friends became outraged
Bm                              F#m
He just loved her, and showed her everyday
                 E
But when he said those three words, she just turned away
Bm                                      F#m
Although he was hurt, he claimed he loved her from the start
E
And promised her his heart
          Bm                        F#m
Even though he was obscene
               A                E
He fell in love at just nineteen
           D           Bm          E                             A
with a younger girl who didn't feel the same
          Bm                  F#m             E
All his friends would gossip and say
A                                        E 
That she would leave some day
        D               Bm                          E
But he liked to think, of things that could be
A                 E
So naive at nineteen
Bm                                      F#m
He took her in his arms, and told her that this was right
      E
And he said he felt it from the start, as he held her very tight
        Bm                                      F#m
They were always together, since the day they met each other
E       
But now she felt unsure
         Bm                  F#m
Then turned and looked him in the eye
E
As she said goodbye
         Bm                        F#m
Even though he was obscene
               A                E

A                                        E

A                 E
So naive at nineteen
Em  G               D                             A
How he, felt so very bad after waiting, two whole years for her
Em                                  G
Just to, see her leave with, some other guy, during the summer
D                          A
He tried to accept, the fact that she was gone
Em                                                      G
And even though he really tried, it seemed he couldn't move along
D                                       A
He sent a note about how he felt, around Thanksgiving
Am
And in the end he wrote "For you...anything..."
         Bm                        F#m
