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