E/A A7
The kid sister of someone I know

And she was pretty

Happiest thing in the whole wide world

F#m
And then I left her place
To become a man
C#m
And I never thought I'd see her again
D
And I even failed
A E C#7
Remembering her name
F#m
But the other night
At the studio fifty-four
C#m
She came suddenly walking
Through the front door
D
And she settled down

In my mind again

I can live for another thousand years

Another place, another time

There ain't no more worries

No more fears

Where she knows I'll find

Been through some struggle

And some strive

And she is pretty

It's not the color, not the size

Guess it's the promise in those eyes

Ooh like she was

And then I left the place
And became a man

At the studio fifty-four
