For some reason, everyone is tonedeaf. The song is obviously played in the key
of A, I have posted it up here.
A B
Those school girl days
D A
of telling tales and biting nails are gone
A B
But in my mind
D A
I know they will, will still live on and on
G#m C#m
But how do you thank someone
G#m C#m
who has taken you from crayons to perfume
B E B F#
It isn't easy but I'll try....
B
If you wanted the sky
D B
I'd write across the sky in letters
D B
that would soar a thousand feet high
E F#
To Sir, With Love
A B
The time has come
D A
for closing books and long last looks must end
A B
And as I leave
D A
I know that I am leaving my best friend
G#m C#m
A friend who taught me right from wrong
G#m C#m
and weak from strong, that's a lot to learn
B E B F#
What! what can I give you in return
B
If you wanted the moon
D B
I would try to make a start But I
D B
would rather you let me give my heart
E F#
To Sir, With Love
A B
Those awkward years
D A
have hurried by why did they fly away
A B
Why is it Sir
D A
children grow up to be people some day
G#m C#m
What takes the place of climbing trees
G#m C#m
and dirty knees in the world outside
B E B F#
What is there for you I can buy
B
If you wanted the world
D B
I'd surround it with a wall I'd scrawl
D B
These words with letters ten feet tall
E F#
To Sir, With Love
