With my [C]high starched collar
[G]an d my [C]high -topped [G]shoes,
and my [C]hair piled [G]high upon my [C]head
[Dbdim]She went to f[G]ind a jolly hour
[C]on the trolley
and [Am]found [D]my hiding [G]stead
With his [C]light brown [G]derby
and his bright [C]green [G]tie,
he was [C]quite the [B]handsomest of [Em]men
[Am]I st[G]arted to yin[Am], so[D] I cou[G]nted to te[A]n,
[G]then I counted to [D]ten [G]again.[Ab]
[G]Clang, cla[C]ng, clang went the trolley,
ding, ding, ding went the [G]bell.
[C]Zing, zing, zing went my [F]heart strings,
[G]for the mo[C]ment [Am]I saw[C] him[G] I fel[C]l.
Chug, chug, chug, went the motor
Thump, thump, thump,
went the [G]brakes
[C]Thump, thump, thump,
went my [F]heart strings
[Fm]When [Ddim]she smi[C]led I could
[Am]feel [G]the car [C]shake
He tipped his [Dm]hat [G]and took a s[C]eat
I said I [Dm]hoped I [G]hadn't stepped upon her [C]feet
I asked her [F#]name, [B]then lost my [E]breath[Em]
[G]I couldn't speak because
it scared me half to [D]death
[G]Buz[C]z, buzz, buzz went the buzzer
Blop, blop, blop went the [G]wheel
[C]Stop, stop, stop went my [F]heartstrings
As she [C]started [G]to leave
I took hold of her sleeve with [F]my [C]hand
[Am]An d[F#dim] as if it were[Ebdim] planned,[G]
[Dbdim]she stayed on with m[A]e
[Dm]And [G]it was grand just to s[Dm]tand
[E]with her hand holding [Am]mine
[Dm]To the e[G]nd of the li[C]ne
