[Verse]
F A#
He took my knapsack just inside the revolving door
F C
It was a bookstore where I'd never been before
F A#
I wasn't looking for anything more than a book
F C
But I looked, isn't that what eyes are for
F A#
Studied biographies, I checked out the magazines
F C
My mind kept leading me back to his face
F A#
I'd seen something about him that made me feel 17
F C
Stop, so I'm not, isn't that what minds are for
[Chorus]
C
Now every day I can't wait to see him
A# F
I'm gonna ask his name
C
But every day I hand him my bag and
A# C
Everything remains the same
[Verse]
F A#
He took my knapsack and his fingers brushed my wrist
F C
Gave me a number but it wasn't even his
F A#
I crossed another novel off of my reading list
F C
Wished to be kissed isn't that what lips are for
F A#
Thinking about him when I'm on my way to work
F C
All these men in suits they look too perfect
F A#
And I want to tell him I'm not just some soulless jerk
F C
Hey, I got a band I understand what life is for
[Chorus]
C
Now every day I can't wait to see him
A# F
I'm gonna ask his name
C
But every day I hand him my bag and
A# F
Everything remains the same
[Verse]
F A#
He took my knapsack just inside the revolving door
F C
Wanted to tell him that I can't see him anymore
F A#
Got a new job in a different part of town
F C
Fired and rehired isn't that what work is for
F A#
He smiled right at me but I couldn't meet his eye
F C
All I could look at was the palm tree on his tie
F A#
I'll think about him when I go to bed at night
F C
Deep in my sleep isn't that what dreams are for
[Outro]
F A#
He took my knapsack just inside the revolving door
F A#
He took my knapsack just inside the revolving door
F A# F
He took my knapsack
