B                   E       B
Dream on, Dream on, Teenage Queen

E         B          F#m  B
Prettiest girl we've ever seen.

B               E      B
There's a story in our town

                 F#m   B
Of the prettiest girl around

                E       B
Golden hair and eyes of blue

                     F#m      B
How those eyes could flash at you

                     F#m      B
How those eyes could flash at you

E                    B
Boys hung around her by the score

                  F#m      B
But she loved the boy next door

                  F#m   B
Who worked at the candy store.

B                   E       B
Dream on, Dream on, Teenage Queen

E         B          F#m  B
Prettiest girl we've ever seen.

B               E        B
She was tops in all they said

                   F#m    B
It never once went to her head

        E              B
She had ev'rything, it seemed

                 F#m     B
Not a care, this Teenage Queen

                 F#m     B
Not a care, this Teenage Queen

E                B
Other boys could offer more

                  F#m      B
But she loved the boy next door

                  F#m   B
Who worked at the candy store.

B                   E       B
Dream on, Dream on, Teenage Queen

E         B          F#m  B
You should have been a movie queen.

B              E        B
He would marry her next spring

                    F#m      B
Saved his money and bought a ring

               E     B
Then one day a movie scout

                F#m      B
Came to town to take her out

                F#m      B
Came to town to take her out

E               B
Hollywood could offer more

                F#m      B
So she left the boy next door

               F#m   B
Workin' at the candy store.

B                   E       B
Dream on, Dream on, Teenage Queen

E       B      F#m   B
See you on the movie screen.

B             E     B
Very soon she was a star

                 F#m    B
Pretty house and shiny cars

                    E     B
Swimming pool and a fence around

                   F#m     B
But she missed her old hometown

                   F#m     B
But she missed her old hometown

E                 B
All the world was at her door

               F#m      B
All except the boy next door

                  F#m   B
Who worked at the candy store.

B                   E       B
Dream on, Dream on, Teenage Queen

E       B          F#m  B
Saddest girl we've ever seen.

B                E       B
Then one day the teenage star

                   F#m     B
Sold her house and all her cars

                E          B
Gave up all her wealth and fame

                F#m      B
Left it all and caught a train

                F#m      B
Left it all and caught a train

E            B
Do I have to tell you more

                     F#m      B
She came back to the boy next door

                  F#m   B
Who worked at the candy store.

B              E        B
Now this story has some more
