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

[Outro]
A# F
It's been awhile since we said "hi"
D#
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)
A# F
I see you every time I pass your locker
D#
Remember the time we talked 'till six a.m
F# A#
And I'm tired of missing you
D# F A#
Six G#M and I'm tired of missing you
