Intro:  C# A B C#m G# 

verse 1:C#  
        I was in the classroom after school 
        A 
        Working on the chalkboard once again 
        F#m 
        You were in your uniform standing by the door 
        C#m                     G# 
        When I saw you, saw you there 

        C# 
        You were wondering if I'd walk you home 
        A 
        Even though I lived on the opposite side 
        B                                           C#m        G# 
        I said, "Sure, I don't need to be home soon anyway, anyway."

        Hold my little hand, baby 


verse 2:C# 
        I started to wear my dad's cologne 
        A 
        Started combing my hair to the side 
        B 
        Anything that I could do 
                            C#m        G# 
        Just to keep your attention on me 

        C# 
        But I was just a phantom passing by 
             A 
        When you where on the track home with your friends 
        B 
        I was nobody at all 
                         C#m     G# 
        I just needed an answer, baby

verse 3:C# 
        Never will I know what you saw in me 
        A 
        But surely you knew exactly what I saw in you 
        B                                               C#m        G#
