G5                                 E5 
That day, I first saw you passing by 
G5                              E5               D5 
I wanted, to ask your name but I...was much too shy 
          G5 
But I was looking at you so hard 
         E5 
That you must have had a hunch. 
       C5 
So you came up to me and asked me my name.  
 

                   G5 
You beat me to the punch 
     E5 
That time 
                   G5 
You beat me to the punch 
        E5 
Yes you did.  
 
Verse 
 

G5                               E5 
After, I had known you for what seems like a long, long time 
  G5                                   E5                D5 
I wanted, wanted to ask you would you please, please be mine 
         G5                           
Whenever you came around, my heart would pound 
   E5 
So you must have had a hunch. 
       C5                 
So you came up to me and asked me to be yours.  
 

                   G5 
You beat me to the punch 
         E5 
One more time 
                   G5 
You beat me to the punch 
        E5 
Yes you did.  
 

      C5 
Since I loved you 
  D5 
I thought you would be true 
    G5       E5 
And love me tender 
     G5            E5 
So I let my heart surrender 
   G5          E5 
To you, yes I did. 
 

    C5 
But I found out 
   D5 
Beyond a doubt 
    G5 
One day, boy 
           E5 
You were a playboy 
          C5 
Who would go away and leave me 
D5 
Blue. 
 

                 G5 
So I ain't gonna wait around for you to put me down 
     E5 
This time I'm gonna play my hunch 
    C5 
And walk away this very day. 
                    G5 
And beat you to the punch 
      E5 
Yes I will 
                     G5 
I'll beat you to the punch 
     E5 
This time.
