Worthless answers from

Chorus 1:
A              E
  She makes me feel like

it's raining outside
A               E
  And when the storm's gone
        F#m       D
I'm all torn up inside
A            E         F#m
  I'm always nervous on days

like this like the prom

  Remember when I was in

The grocery store

now's my time
         Bm
Lost the words
         C#m
lost the nerve
         D
Lost the girl
         A
left the line
        Bm
I would wish
        C#m
upon a star
          D
But that star
           A
it doesn't shine
           Bm
So read my book
              C#m
with a boring ending
         D
A short story
of a lonely guy
