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 Well nothing I come up with seems to work It feels like everything I say is a lie And never have I felt like such a jerk I'm afraid to even open my eyes Because I really don't want her to judge me I want her to really know who I am And then and only then will she love me Well at least that was the plan Chorus: If ever a boy needed a holiday If ever a girl needed someone to hold I just hope I don't act the same way By the time that I get that old What kind of cartwheels do I have to pull? What kind of joke should I lay on her now? I'm inclined to go finish high school Just to make her notice that I'm around I never said I was the heir to a fortune I never claimed to have any looks But these kind of things must be important Because somebody ripped out my page in your telephone book I wanna warm her heart You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA  C  D  F  G  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
