C                          G
When I was in my freshman year
C                              G
Nothing around me seemed too clear
C               F             Fm
My, oh my, you can't blame a guy
     G
When everything seems so new

Then I came to be a sophomore
I gotta around better than I did before
Made friends fast in every class
Especially in the one I met you

Chorus:
E7
Now I'm a junior and you're my girl
A7
Gee, but those two years flew
     D7
I'll be the happiest guy in the whole wide world
G
If I can bank on a honeymoon with you

When I complete my senior term
I'll make reservations with you, concur
There'll be no doubt of me losing out
I'll get a diploma for two

Chorus

When I complete my senior term
I'll make reservations with you, concur
There'll be no doubt of me losing out
I'll get a diploma for two
