[Verse]
       A#                   F
It wasn't the books that I didn't 
read,
                             A#
It wasn't the teachers that tried to
 teach me.
                        F
It wasn't that varsity baseball 
coach,
                      A#
Kept on tellin' them locker room 
jokes, it was:
                            F
[Chorus]

Bobby Ann Mason, back in high 
school.
                           A#
She was way too cute, she was way 
too cool.
                        F
How was I gonna get an education,
                       A#
Settin' right back of Bobby Ann 
Mason.

           F

                            A#
Bobby knew how to keep the boys in 
suspense.
She'd tease with a touch, she'd 
 F
tease with a kiss,
                              A#
I was three long years being teased 
by, pretty Miss:

             A#                    
(3rd Verse)  Yeah! Bobby graduated 
 F
first in her class.
                 A#
Me, I graduated closer to last.

Bobby went to college, she got a 
degree,
                           A#
I got a guitar so I could sing 
about, me and:

              B                  
(4th Verse)  Yeah! The years have 
                 F#
taught me, the basics of math.
                  B
Divorce divides; time subtracts; 
Takes away your hair,
       F#                        
Takes away your jump shot, but it 
                       B
ain't gonna take all mem'ries I got 
of:

[Chorus]
 F#                                
Back in high school, she was way 
                 B
too cute, she was way too cool.
                  F#               
I got most of my education settin'
