Intro MI LA SI MI LA SI DO#m
MI LA SI
VERSE 1:
MI DO#m LA SI
I was lousy at math, a failed historian
MI DO#m LA SI
Carlene was the valedictorian
MI DO#m LA SI
I was the quarterback in the back of class
MI DO#m LA SI MI LA SI
She was the whiz kid in horned rim glasses
MI DO#m LA SI
It's been a long time since I've been around
MI DO#m LA SI
Since I stepped foot on my old stomping ground
MI DO#m LA SI
I ended up by the old school yard
MI DO#m LA SI
And this red head pulls up in a blue sports car
FA#m MI LA SI
And says, "I bet you don't remember, I guess it's been forever."
FA#m SOL#m LA SI
It took a second to put it all together and I said...

MI DO#m LA SI
She said, "What a switch, ain't life funny, I've got a

Ph.D now I'm modeling for money."
MI DO#m LA SI
Imagine little miss 4 point 0 just
MI DO#m LA SI
Smiling for the camera on the cover of Vogue
FA#m MI LA SI
I said, "You've come a long way since graduation, let me say without
reservation
FA#m SOL#m LA SI
You've surpassed everyone's expectations"

I said, "I hope to see you again someday"
