    He was a boy she was a girl,

                         Bb5      
    That secretly she wanted him as well.

    She had a pretty face but her head was up in space

                      A5                             Bb5
    She needed to come back down to Earth

     

    D5                A5                     B5

                      Bb5      
    feeding her baby she's all alone

    She turns on TV, guess who she sees

                      C5        
    Skater Boy rocking up MTV

    She calls up her friends they already know

                           Bb5      
    They've all got tickets to see his show

    D5           A5                          B5              
    She tags along, stands in the crowd

                                           C5
    Looks up at the man that she turned down
