(Play intro) [Verse] You were all done up, But it wasn't for me. You were up at the front To tap on your feet. I was back at the bar. You had your eyes on the stage. You had an "X" on your hand To tell them your age.
CAm I didn't put my money on it. C But I was Dadd9 Hoping that you would be here. CAm If I was something that you ever wanted, C Then I'm all ears. Dadd9 I'm all ears.
[Chorus] CEmAm You made a wish at 11:11. GD I held your hips at 12:34. CEmAm There was a kiss just waiting to happen. GBm A cab was calling outside the door.
CEmAmG Oh, D I knew from the beginning. CEmAmG Oh, Bm it was you from the beginning.
(Play intro) [Verse] Excuse the disguise, Or the ones before. I've been convincing myself There could be something more.
Em I said, "If you go home D And you get on the phone, CG And you tell your girlfriends about me, Em I'll go home D And I'll sleep on my own, CDadd9 And dream of a girl named Lonnie."
CAm Those others couldn't hold a candle to ya, C But you were Dadd9 glowing in the dark. CAm I was nervous just standing with you. CDadd9 You were glowing in the dark.
[Chorus] CEmAm You made a wish at 11:11. GD I held your hips at 12:34. CEmAm There was a kiss just waiting to happen. GBm A cab was calling outside the door.
CEmAmG Oh, D I knew from the beginning. CEmAmG Oh, Bm it was you from the beginning.
CG And you weren't even trying -- C Your dirty blonde hair EmG Had me going wild. CG You were a little bit shy then. DmAm There's no denying something so true.
CEmAm You made a wish at 11:11. GD I held your hips at 12:34. CEmAm There was a kiss just waiting to happen. GBm A cab was calling outside the door.
CEmAmG Oh, D I knew from the beginning. CEmAmG Oh, Bm it was you from the beginning,
