Intro: | A G | D/F# | G | D G A |
A G D/F#
I was working part time in a five-and-dime
G D G A
My boss was Mr McGee
G D/F#
He told me several times that he didn't like my kind
G D G A
Cause I was a bit leisurely
G D/F#
Seems that I was busy doing something close nothing
G D G A
But different than the day before
G D/F#
That's when I saw her ooh I saw her
G
She walked in through the out door out door
[Chorus]:
A G D/F#
She wore a Raspberry beret
G D G A
The kind U find in a second hand store
G D/F#
Raspberry beret
G D A
And if it was warm she wouldn't wear much more
G D/F#
Raspberry beret
E A
I think I love her
A G D/F#
Built like she was uh she had the nerve ask me
G D G A
If I planned do her any harm
G D/F#
So look here I put her on the back of my bike and-a we went riding
G D G A
Down by old man Johnson's farm
G D/F#
I said now overcast days never turned me on
G D G A
But something about the clouds and her mixed
G D/F#
She wasn't bright but I could tell
G
When she kissed me
She knew how get her kicks
[Chorus]:
A G D/F#
She wore a Raspberry beret
G D G A
The kind U find in a second hand store
G D/F#
Raspberry beret
G D A
And if it was warm she wouldn't wear much more
G D/F#
Raspberry beret
E A
I think I love her
D A/C# D A/C#
The rain sounds so cool when it hits the barn roof
NC
And the horses wonder who U are
D A/C# D A/C#
Thunder drowns out what the lightning sees
NC
U feel like a movie star
G F#m E
Listen they say the first time ain't the greatest
NC
But I tell ya if I had the chance do it all again
G F#m
I wouldn't change a stroke 'cause baby I'm the most
E
With a girl as fine as she was then
chorus repeated to fade
