Intro: G Em C D G Em C D G C D G Not long ago in my high school days, I watched a girl from so far away, Em C D G But every time she passed me by, I turned my head away and quietly sighed. G C D G Em And when she walked by her hair would dance, a secret tango that only I could understand, Em C D G And when she’d ask me for the time of day, I’d look her in the eyes and quietly say. G C D G Oh Kristina, Kristina, do you have any clue who I am? (HELL NO!) Em C D G So listen up cause I’ll tell ya once and I’ll explain myself the best that I can, whoa, G C D G Kristina, Kristina you don’t know me so I'll have to persist, (whistle) Em C D G I’m kinda shy so no wonder why, Kristina she don’t know I exist. G C D G From class to class, I followed her, but I swore I'd leave her undisturbed, Em C D G And if she’d ever stopped and turned around, I’d get so nervous that I’d stare at the ground. G C D G Em And then one day in photography, I found a contact print that I could not believe, Em C D G and there she was staring back at me, so I took her home so quietly. G C D G Oh Kristina, Kristina, do you have any clue who I am? (HELL NO!) Em C D G So listen up cause I’ll tell ya once and I’ll explain myself the best that I can, whoa, G C D G Kristina, Kristina you don’t know me so I'll have to persist, (whistle) Em C D G I’m kinda shy so no wonder why, Kristina she don’t know I exist. G C D G 1.17.98 has been a day that I’ve come to hate, Em C D G As I walked into the video store, there she stood as my jaw fell to the floor. G C D G Em Tapping her toe, and waiting in line, with a movie and another guy, Em C D G Why did I bother, why did I care, about this girl named Kristina Behr? G C D G Kristina, Kristina, you’ll never get to know who I am (YOUR LOSS!) G C D G This is goodbye so please don’t cry and I'll let you down as softly as I can, G C D G Kristina, Kristina, another name to cross off my list. Em C D G Another life, it could’ve been nice, but Kristina she won’t know what she missed. G Em C D G Em C D
