Intro: D
D Well it's the same old song G Boy meets girl
And girl meets boy D They carry on G They close their eyes D And kiss until the world is gone A Oh yes it's true D It's happening to you
D You know what they say G They pledge their love forever D Then they add a day G They hold their hands so tight
In the fear D That one might stray A Oh yes it's true D It's happening to you AD It's happening to you
Chorus: G I loved her D She loved me too G We had a lot of love DA Now it's all through
D And for a while G Their hearts beat one
As they match each other D Smile for smile G They dance away the night
As they praise D The others style A Oh yes it's true D It's happening to you AD It's happening to you
(Repeat Chorus)
D Well it's the same old song G Boy meets girl
And girl meets boy D They carry on G They close their eyes D And kiss until the world is gone A Oh yes it's true D It's happening to you AD It's happening to you
