Theres Been A Change In Me

G                             
When I was very young my mother 
        G7
often said

        C
I was a bashful kid my face was 
always red

      G                   E7
I was afraid of girls but now you 
see

A7                         D7    
Law-dy law  there's been a change
    G
 in me


Then at the age of twelve I went to 
         G7
my first dance

          C
We played kissing games and then I 
got the chance

          G               E7
To learn about how nice a kiss can 
be

A7                    D7        G
You know  there was a change in me


Continues after the ad
I started noticing the little girl 
     G7
next door

             C
I walked her home from school I 
never did before

       G                 E7
I even carved her name upon a tree

A7                 D7        G
Oh boy there was a change in me


I took to slicking up my hair with 
        G7
lots of goo

            C
And I would shine my shoes and look 
in mirrors too

         G               E7
Until my mother said why son  it's 
true

A7                      D7        
Yes sir  there's been a change in 
G
you


As the years went by I sure did get 
   G7
around

          C
Why I was number one with all the 
girls in town

        G                   E7
I had a different date most every 
night

A7                D7       G
Whew  there was a change alright


But now I've met a gal who stole my 
       G7
heart away

          C
I'm gonna marry her and settle down 
someday

           G                E7
And if I'm true to her then I'll 
agree

A7                    D7        G
Ha Ha  there's been a change in me
