E A B C#m
E A B
VERSE 1:
E C#m A B
I was lousy at math, a failed historian
E C#m A B
Carlene was the valedictorian
E C#m A B
I was the quarterback in the back of class
E C#m A B E A B
She was the whiz kid in horned rim glasses
E C#m A B
It's been a long time since I've been around
E C#m A B
Since I stepped foot on my old stomping ground
E C#m A B
I ended up by the old school yard
E C#m A B
And this red head pulls up in a blue sports car
F#m E A B
And says, "I bet you don't remember, I guess it's been forever."
F#m G#m A B
It took a second to put it all together and I said...
CHOURUS:
E B A
Ooh la la la la la
B E A C#m B
Looking good Carlene
E B A
Woh my my my my my
B E C#m
Times been good to you
A B
If you know what I mean
F#m E
Girl you glitter like Hollywood
F#m G#m
Good gosh Carlene
A B E A B C#m E A B
You sure are lookin good
VERSE 2:
E C#m A B
She said, "Hop in let's go for a spin
E C#m A B
Tell me whatcha been doing boy and where you been"
E C#m A B
I said, "I write songs, you probably didn't know, but I
E C#m A B E A B
Finally got a couple out on country radio"
E C#m A B
She said, "What a switch, ain't life funny, I've got a
E C#m A B
Ph.D now I'm modeling for money."
E C#m A B
Imagine little miss 4 point 0 just
E C#m A B
Smiling for the camera on the cover of Vogue
F#m E A B
I said, "You've come a long way since graduation, let me say without
reservation
F#m G#m A B
You've surpassed everyone's expectations"
Pre-Chourus:
C#m B
I said, "I hope to see you again someday"
A B
She said, "Another ten years is too long to wait
F#m G#m A B
Pick me up at my momma's at eight"
I said...
