Each time we have a quarrel, it almost breaks my heart,
C Am F G
Cause I'm so afraid that we will have to part,
C Am F G
Each night I ask the stars up above,
C G F Em Dm
Why must I be a teenager in love?
C Am F G
One day I feel so happy, next day I feel so sad.
C Am F G
I guess I'll learn to take the good with the bad.

C G F Em Dm
Why must I be a teenager in love?

F G F G F Em Dm

C Am F G
Well, if you want to make me cry, that won't be so hard to do.
C Am F G
And if you should say goodbye, I'll still go on loving you.
