Verse:
C G
It was a Monday afternoon,
Em D/F# C G Em
I was waiting for you early and then she walked by.
C G Em D/F#
And whatever I was thinking, it went chasing after her.
Am C
But I don't know why.
C G Em D/F#
Why I couldn't say a word my tongue was laced up like my sneakers,
C G Em
Don't you know I tried.
C G Em D/F#
Can't stop seeing her walking by and she didn't even see me, no.
Am C
I don't know why.
Chorus:
Em
'Cause I don't know anything about her,
A7
Don't think I can live without her,
C G
I don't even know her name.
Em
And I don't know if she's associated,
A7 C G
I think that could be debated, right after I know her name.
Verse:
C G Em D/F#
My friend said, "Son, it's understood that this happens with some frequency.
C G Em
You should think this through."
C G
Yeah, we heard she was well known,
Em D/F# C G Em
And this would not be out of sequence for a boy like you.
C G
As for the state of my well-being,
Em D/F#
I appreciate your interest.
C G Em
But, just hear my side.
C G
She's not like all the other girls,
Em D/F#
Yes I really think she's different, no.
Am C
Soon you can decide.
Chorus:
Em
'Cause you don't know anything about her,
A7
Don't think you can live without her,
C G
You don't even know her name.
Em
And you don't know if she's associated,
A7 C G
You think that could be debated, right after you know her name.
Instrumental:

Chorus:
Em
'Cause I don't know everything about her,
A7
Know that I can live without her,
C G
I don't even know her name.
Em
And I don't know if she's associated,
A7 C G
She thinks that could be debated, right after I know her name.
