[F]
She [Gm] [C]
[F] was only 16, [C] only [Bb] 16, but [Cm] I loved [F] her so.

[F]
We'd laugh and we'd sing [Bb] and do funny [C]
[Bb] things, [C] and it made [F] our hearts glow.
But she was too young [Bb] to fall [C] in love, [Bb] and I [C] was too [F] young to know.
[Bb] So why did [C] I give [F] my heart so fast?
[Bb] It never [C] will happen [F] again.
[Bb] But I was [C] a mere [F] child of [Dm]
