Middle School Girlfriend (Live)

Intro: ( C  C/B  Am7 ) x2
 
C                      C/B
Sitting here in Earth Science class
Am7
Waiting for the time to pass
C               C/B                       Am7
Waiting on puberty, and the lunch bell (Boop!)
 
C                      C/B
Three seats in front of me
       Am7
Sits Beverly (she’s alright)
C                             C/B               Am7
But one seat to the left of her is Heather (Heather, Heather)
C                               C/B
My dream girl since sixth grade
Am
Sure, that was only last year
         Am7                          C
But a lot can happen in a year
                          C/B                                Am7
Like losing the perm and getting some bangs
                    Am7
Making the cheerleading squad
           D7
And developing other things…

Like that beautiful smile.
And boobs
Two of ‘em
 
                               G
I wish she was my
Bm       C      D G   Bm      C
Middle school girlfriend!
D                        G  Bm   C
What I wouldn’t do-o-o
      D                    G          Bm  C             
To see her in her headgear
           D             G
In the moonlight
          Bm   C     D      G  Bm
If she only knew that I existed
        C               D           G        Bm
She couldn’t resist this dude!
            C                D
That’s right, I’m a dude
        G                Bm            C
Just look at my mustache
 
D
Ah, you’re gonna have to get a little bit closer.
See it? Right in there.
Oh I see it
 
( C  C/B  Am7 ) x2
 
You know what I’m gonna do? I’m gonna call her. I’m gonna pick up the phone, and I’m gonna call her.

(Ringing)


















C
Hello?
C/B              Am7
Hello, can I speak with Heather?
Speaking.
        Am7                                            C
Hey Heather, this is Trevor. Whatcha doin’?
Nothing. What are you doing?
C/B                                  Am7
Nothing. Whatcha doing?
You just asked me that. Nothing.
Am7                           –
Oh. Yeah. Uh… um, will you go with me? Sure.
Ah… o-okay. See you tomorrow.
 
C                                              C/B
Now that me and Heather are going together
                  Am7
We’ve got a unique bond that nobody can sever
          C                                  C/B
Even though I haven’t really talked to her
                 Am7
Since that night on the phone (night on the phone)
          C                                                 C/B
And I know she still remembers every word I said
                            Am7
That’s what she’s thinking when she’s perched up on that pyramid
              C         C/B                   Am7
Saying, “Go! Go Eagles! You can do it! Shoot two! Number one!”
                        C                                            C/B
And look, her best friend’s coming over to deliver a message
                     Am7
Because she can’t leave her seat
Even during a scrimmage
          C
Hey, Natalie.
C/B                     Am7
It’s Trevor, right? Yeah.
Am7                                       C                             C/B
Heather wanted me to come over and tell you that the other night on the
Am7                                                   Am7
phone she thought you were Trevor Johnson
C                              C/B   Am7
But you’re not, right?
Am7
I’m Trevor Johnston
Yeah
C                                  C/B        Am7                                   C
Well she thinks Trevor Johnson is hot and you’re like, not, so she’s breaking up with you
                           C/B                     Am7
Even though she was never really going with you
Am7
Pfff! Bye!
I was gonna dump her anyway

In the moonlight
