[A] [C]
There's a story in our town of the prettiest [G] girl [C] around
Golden hair [F] and eyes [C] of blue
How those eyes [G] could flash [C] at you
How those eyes [G] could flash at you
[F] Boys hung round [C] her by the score
But she loved [G] the [C] boy next door
Who worked [G] at the [C] candy store
Dream on, dream on, teenage queen
Prettiest girl we've ever seen
She was queen of the senior prom
She could cook just like her mom
She had [F] everything at [C] sea
Pure delight, [G] this teenage [C] queen
Pure delight, [G] this teenage queen
[F] Other boys [C] could offer more
But she loved [G] the boy [C] next door
Who worked at [G] the [C] candy store
Dream on, dream on, teenage queen
You should [G] be a [C] movie queen
He would marry her next spring
Saved his money, bought a ring
Then one day a movie scout
Came to town to take her out
Came to town to take her [F] out
Hollywood [C] could offer more
So she left [G] the boy [C] next door
Who worked at [G] the [C] candy store
Dream on, dream on, teenage queen
See you [G] on the [C] movie screen
[D]
Very soon she was a star
Pretty house and shiny cars
Swimming [G] pool and a fence [D] around
But she missed [A] her old [D] hometown
But she missed her old hometown
[G] All the world [D] was at her door
All except the boy next door
Who worked [A] at the [D] candy store
Dream on, dream on, teenage queen
Saddest [A] girl [D] we've ever seen
Then one day this teenage star
Sold her house [A] and all [D] her cars
Gave up all [G] her wealth [D] and fame
Left it [A] all and [D] caught a train
Left it all and caught a train
Next day she was at the door
Of the lonely boy next door
Who works [A] at the [D] candy store
Now [G] this story has some more
You'll hear [D] it [A] all at the candy [D] store
There's a story in our town of the prettiest [G] girl [C] around
