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