[Verse 1]
 Ab                      B    Bb  A
Andrew's a starfighter pilot

 Ab                         B  Bb  A
And he can get high in his jet

 Ab                      B    Bb  A
Tells me about all his women

Ab                    B   Bb  F
He can get any, I'll bet
[Chorus]
 F   G          A
You know I'll think of you

 F      G            A
Your picture on the wall

F         G        A
I would raise my drink to you

 F              G             A
But I'll stay sober just for you

 G              F           E
Just for you, just for you

And all of his past shows on tape
