[Verse 1]
D C I want to be the boy to warm your mother's heart G D I'm so scared to take you away C I tried to win her over right from the start G D But something always got in the way C We've been sitting in your backyard for hours G D But she won't even come out and say hi C While my mother baked a little cake for you G And even dreaded when you said goodbye
[Chorus]
F G What kind of cartwheels do I have to pull? D What kind of joke should I lay on her now? F G I'm inclined to go finish high school A Just to make her notice that I'm around
| D | C G | x2
[Verse 2]
D C Well nothing I come up with seems to work G D It feels like everything I say is a lie C And never have I felt like such a jerk G D I'm afraid to even open my eyes C Because I really don't want her to judge me G D I want her to really know who I am C And then and only then will she love me G Well at least that was the plan
[Chorus]
F G If ever a boy needed a holiday D If ever a girl needed someone to hold F G I just hope I don't act the same way A By the time that I get that old
[Solo]
| D | C G | x4
[Chorus]
F G What kind of cartwheels do I have to pull? D What kind of joke should I lay on her now? F G I'm inclined to go finish high school A Just to make her notice that I'm around
| D | C G | x2
[Outro]
D C I never said I was the heir to a fortune G D I never claimed to have any looks C But these kind of things must be important G A Because somebody ripped out my page in your telephone book D I wanna warm her heart
