Capo 5 fret

C        G              D                   Em
He was a boy, she was a girl. Can I make it any more obvious
C        G             D            Em
He was a punk, she did ballet. What more can I say
C         G                D              Em
He wanted her, she'd never tell. Secretly she wanted him as well
C              G                       D
But all of her friends, stuck up their nose
           Em
They had a problem with his baggy clothes
 
 
[Chorus]
C                        G
He was a skater boy, She said see ya later boy
          D               Em
He wasn't good enough for her
C                          G
She had a pretty face, but her head was up in space
              D                 Em
She needed to come back down to earth
 
 
C            G                D
5 years from now, she sits at home
            Em
Feeding the baby she's all alone
C             G                   D
She turns on TV and guess who she sees
           Em
Skater boy rocking on MTV
C             G                     D
She calls her friends, they already know
                    Em
And they've all got tickets to see his show
C        G                    D
She tags along, stands in the crowd
                         Em
Looks up at the man that she turned down
 
 
[Chorus]
C                        G
He was a skater boy, she said see ya later boy
          D               Em
He wasn't good enough for her
C                         G
But now he's a superstar, slamming on his guitar
                 D                  Em
Does your pretty face see what he's worth
 
 
Am                        G
Sorry girl but you missed out,
           D                    Am
Well tough luck that boy's mine now
Am                         G
We are more than just good friends
        D             Am
This is how the story ends
 
 
Am                   G
Too bad you couldn't see
        D                  Am
See the man that boy could be
Am                           G
There is more than meets the eye
          D            Am
I see the soul that is inside
 
 
C           G                   D
He's just a boy, and I'm just a girl
              Em
Can I make it any more obvious
C         G                 D
We are in love, haven't you heard
       Em               Am D
How we rock each others world
 
 
C                          G
I'm with the skater boy, I said see ya later boy
        D         A         Em
I'll be backstage after the show
C                   G
I'll be the studio, singing the song we wrote
        D        A       Em
About a girl you used to know  (x2)
