[Verse 1]
B
I saw you in the hallway
A#m
I bet that's what they all say
B
You probably didn't even notice I was the loser
A#m
Who was staring at my shoes and
B
Couldn't think of nothing to say
I'm on the runway
A#m
Of a flight that's going one way
B
On "cross your finger" airlines
I'm picking up the pace
A#m
Getting nervous in the worst way, here goes nothing
[Pre-Chorus]
B F#
I saw her walking over
G F#
She's slowly moving closer
B F# E
Wrote her a letter 'bout a week ago an', to my surprise
F#
She replied and said:
[Chorus]
B F# E
You can hold me once, You can hold me twice
F# B
Even better if the stars are good tonight
F#
You can hold me, be my one and only
E G B A#m B A#m
This is the reply to the letter you wrote me
[Verse 2]
B
You told me to meet you after gym class
A#m
But I forgot to get a hall pass
And got sent to the office
B
You tried to call me
A#m
Asked everyone around who saw me
They didn't even notice
B
You're on your way now
A#m
Moving with your parents to some hick town
B
A thousand miles away
I'm in the playground
A#m
And there's so much I could say now
I still remember when
[Pre-Chorus]
B F#
I saw her walking over
G F#
She's slowly moving closer
B F# E
Wrote her a letter 'bout a week ago an', to my surprise
F#

Even better if the stars are good tonight

[Outro]
B F#
It's been awhile since we said "hi"
E
Three hundred and sixty five days have gone by now
And I could paint a picture of you
F#
(I could paint a picture of you)
B F#
I see you every time I pass your locker
E
Remember the time we talked 'till six a.m
G B
And I'm tired of missing you
E F# B
Six AM and I'm tired of missing you
