Biography:
MKTO is a Californian music duo consisting of Malcolm Kelley and Tony Oller. The two met in 2010 while filming the Nickelodeon television series Gigantic, in which they played best friends. They later formed a musical duo and came up with the name MKTO, which represents their combined initials. They elaborated upon the inspiration for their group name, saying "it also stands for what our album kind of is: Misfit Kids and Total Outcasts – just like the kids we were in high school".

Hi everyone this is the acoustic version!!
This is my first submission because none of the others sounded right.
I used the acoustic version to tab this out. Thanks for your support!
Difficulty: Beginner
Tuning: Standard, Capo on 4th
G / Em7 / Cadd9 | Cadd9 / Dsus / Em | Em / Em7 / Cadd9 | Cadd9 / Em7 / G
(The chord names make it look complicated but don't worry! Look at the tabs I
wrote and it's super simple)
G Em7 Cadd9 Cadd9 Dsus Em Em Em7 Cadd9 Cadd9 Em7 G
E|--3----3------3------3------3-----0----(3)----3------3--------3------3-----3---|
B|--0----0------0------0------3-----0-----0----(3)----(3)------(3)-----3----(3)--|

Strumming is simple, listen to the song or watch the acoustic version to get the
strumming.
Simply, the strumming is:
Down Up, Down Up, Down, LS-PM, Down Down, Down Up, Down, LS-PM
(comma means new chord,
LSPM means light strum then palm mute
listen to the song to understand what I mean.
To add a bit of style and spice, after the second Em emphasize your strumming more on the
higher strings and not as much on low e and A to change up your sound.)
Intro:

Four dozen of roses
Anything for you to notice
All the way to serenade you
Doing it Sinatra style
Ima pick you up in a Cadillac
Like a gentleman bringin' glamour back
Keep it reel to reel in the way I feel
I could walk you down the aisle
I wanna thrill you like Michael
I wanna kiss you like Prince
Let's get it on like Marvin Gaye
Like Hathaway
Write a song for you like this
You're over my head
I'm out of my mind
Thinking I was born in the wrong time
It's love on rewind,
Everything is so throwback-ish (I kinda like it, like it)
Out of my league
Old school chic
Like a movie star
From the silver screen
You're one of a kind living in a world gone plastic
Baby you're so classic
Baby you're so classic
Baby you're so classic
Baby you're class and baby you're sick
I never met a girl like you ever 'til we met
A star in the 40s, centrefold in the 50s
Got me tripping out like the sixties
Hippies Queen of the discotheque
A 70s dream and an 80s best
Hepburn, BeyoncÈ, Marilyn, Massive
Girl you're timeless, just so classic
You're over my head I'm out of my mind
Thinking I was born in the wrong time
It's love on rewind,
Everything is so throwback-ish (I kinda like it, like it)
Out of my league
Old school chic
Like a movie star
From the silver screen
You're one of a kind living in a world gone plastic
Baby you're so classic
Baby you're so classic
Baby you're so classic
***Side Note (If you like to hit 2nd fret on 1st string (e string) instead of
leaving it open for G and Em7 etc, feel free, whatever you think sounds better to
you!
On the way back from the two Ems I hold my little finger on the third fret 1st
string to have a different tone on the way back.
This is my first submission because none of the others sounded right.
