To Sir With Love by LuLu
To Sir With Love
[Verse]
C D
Those school girl days
F C
of telling tales and biting nails are gone
C D
But in my mind
F C
I know they will still live on and on
[Pre-Chorus]
B7 Em
But how do you thank someone
B7 Em
who has taken you from crayons to perfume
D G D A7 (xx2223)
It isn't easy but I'll try
[Chorus]
D
If you wanted the sky
C D
I'd write across the sky in letters
C D
that would soar a thousand feet high
G A (riff)
To Sir, With Love
[Verse]
C D
The time has come
F C
for closing books and long last looks must end
C D
And as I leave
F C
I know that I am leaving my best friend
[Pre-Chorus]
B7 Em
A friend who taught me right from wrong
B7 Em
and weak from strong, that's a lot to learn
D G D A7
What! what can I give you in return
[Chorus]
D
If you wanted the moon
C D
I would try to make a start But I
C D
would rather you let me give my heart
G A (riff)
To Sir, With Love
[Verse]
C D
Those awkward years
F C
have hurried by why did they fly away
C D
Why is it Sir
F C
children grow up to be people some day
[Pre-Chorus]
B7 Em
What takes the place of climbing trees
B7 Em
and dirty knees in the world outside
D G D A7
What is there for you I can buy
[Chorus]
D
If you wanted the world
C D
I'd surround it with a wall I'd scrawl
C D
These words with letters ten feet tall
G A (riff) (end on strummed C)
To Sir, With Love
[Riff]
