The boys call her Katie when they ask her on a date

And who knows, Katie? a-Maybe you could be the one
[Verse]
          D
There's a boy outside, standin' in the rain

                                D7

a-Billy walked inside, he ordered up a drink

                                 D7
He started gettin' nervous and a wonderin' what she'd think

    G
She thought he looked nice, rough around the seams

D
Just the kind of boy who could listen to her dreams

    A                   G               A      D
And who knows, Katie? a-Maybe you could be the one

           D
Well, they stepped outside, and took a little walk

                        D7
Katie held his hand and Billy even talked

     G
They sat by the pond, they didn't make a sound

    D
The night fell easy as the moon came down

    A                G              A      D
And who knows, baby? Maybe we could be the one
