[Verse 1]
E F#m7
Poor old Granddad I laughed at all his words
E F#m7
I thought he was a bitter man He spoke of women's ways
E F#m7
They'll trap you, then they use you Be-fore you even know
E F#m7
For love is blind and you're far too kind Don't ever let it show
[Chorus]
E F#m7 A
I wish that I knew all I know now When I was younger
E F#m7 A
I wish that I knew all I know now When I was stronger.
[Main Melody] x2
[Verse 2]
E F#m7
The Can Can's such a pretty show They'll steal your heart away
E F#m7
But backstage, back on earth again The dressing rooms are grey
E F#m7
They come on strong and it ain't too long Before they make you feel a man
E F#m7
But love is blind and you soon will find You're just a boy again
[Chorus]
Play around with E chord during 'solo'
Main melody x2
[Verse 3]
E F#m7
When you want her lips, you get a cheek Makes you wonder where you are
E F#m7
If you want some more and she's fast asleep Leaves you twinkling with the stars.
E F#m7
Poor young grandson, there's nothing I can say
E F#m7
You'll have to learn, just like me And that's the hardest way
[Chorus]
Main melody x2
Start ooh la la-ing
Main Melody x4
