have fun
G
G C
She fell in love with a boy
G
Who spoke a second language
C G
And who lived across the ocean
D
In the evil empire
G C
He awoke her sleeping heart
G
And swept away the darkness
C G
An acute fear of flying
D
Couldn't keep her away
G C G C G D
G C
She landed on her feet
G
And joined his fledgling rock group
C G
As they toured the evil empire
D
Selling t-shirts at the shows
G C
She taught him what was real
G
She taught him he was okay
C G
That his thoughts were not just rubbish
D
That he had something good to give
Am
Still his heart was so ambivalent and hopesick
G Bm
Of her he wasn't ever sure
Am
But she gave in so sweetly that the spirit said
Em D
"Boy, you better go run to her (run to her)"
G C
So when she split, he hopped on a plane
G
With his parents and his brother
C G
He told her that he loved her
D
They were married in the summer
G C G C G D (x2)
Am
Bm G
pretty easy, just listen to the song to get the rhythm right
