 G               C
When I see that girl of mine,
 G                C
Makes me want to sigh
 G               C
When I see that girl of mine,
 G                C
Makes me want to sigh

Chorus:
F                    D
I don't care if the sun don't shine,
 C                      G
long as I can see that girl of mine.
F             D
I know everything'll be fine,
  C                      G
when I see that girl of mine,
  C                      G
When I see that girl of mine.

Getting ready and looking my best
Got to look my best so I'm taking my time
'Cause I need that girl of mine
I know that she'll be mine so I'll keep on trying

they can see, they can see, they can see

When I see that girl of mine
Makes me want to sigh
When I see that girl of mine
Makes me want to sigh

Chorus

When I see that girl of miine.
