I'll never forget the first day I met her

That September morning was clear and fresh

The way she spoke and laughed at my jokes

and the way she rubbed her dress against the edge of my desk

(same as first verse)

She became a magic mystery to me and we'd

sit together in double history twice a week

and some days we'd walk the same way home

and its surprising how quick a little rain can clear the streets

(chorus)

Bm A(*) D5

I dreamed of her in my bed of dreams

Bm G(*)

but that was all that I ever tasted

Bm A(*) D5

she lied to me with her body you see

G F# E G F# E G F# E B A (<---these are notes on the

and I lied to myself bout the chances I wasted low E and A strings)

(same as first verse except where noted)

The times we were close were few and far between

in the darkness of the dances of the school cantene

did she close her eyes as I did when we held each other tightly

D (hold) G A

and lalalalalalalalala..... means I love you

(flute solo over verse chords, whistle if you've got the chops :) )

(same)

She danced with me and I still hold that memory soft and sweet

and eyes stared out the window as I walked down her street

but I never made the first team, I just made the first team laugh

and she never came to the phone, she was always in the bath

Bm A(*) D5

In the end it took me a dic - tionary

Bm G(*)

to find the meaning of unrequited

Bm A(*) D5

while she was giving herself for free

G F# E G F# E G F# E B A (<--- again single notes on low E and A)

at a party to which I was never invited

(same)

I never understood my feeling then and I

hide my humble hopes now

Thinking back, she made us want her

A girl not old enough to shave her legs
