[Bb] [F]
I was sitting in the classroom, [Bb] trying to look intelligent [F] and gay.
The teacher [C] looked at me, [Am] she was long and she [Dm] was lean.
[Bb] She'd [F] met [Gm] a lady's dream, [F] and that lady [Bb] means the [F] whole world [Gm] to me.
[C] [F]
It's a natural achievement, [Bb] bothering my homework with [F] her ailment.
[C] [Am]
She's an [Dm] inspiration [C] [Bb] for [F] my [Gm] graduation, and [F] she helps me keep [Bb] the [C] class [F] going.
[Dm] Oh teacher, [C] I [Bb] need you, [Dm] like a little [C] child.
[Am] You got [Dm] something [C] in you [Bb] to drive school [C] for a while.
To give [Dm] me [C] [Bb] education, and [Dm] my love [C] said blue.
[Am] Help me get a [Dm] good [C] time out [Bb] here.
Teacher I, teacher I, teacher I, [F] teacher I need you.
[Eb] [Bb] [F]
Oh, tell [Bb] [F] [Bb]
[F]
[Bb] about my feelings, [F] just to let her know [C] the scene.
[Am] Focus my [Dm] [G] attention on [Bb] some [F] further [Gm] education, [F] in connection with [Bb] the [F] Fernie [Gm] Zamski.
[C] Oh, [F] so I'm sitting in the classroom, [Bb] looking like a zombie.
[F] I'm waiting for the bell [F] to ring.
[C] [Am] I've got John [Dm] Wayne's stances, [C] I've [Bb] got [F] everything [Gm] that fancies.
And [F] it doesn't mean [Bb] a [C] doggone [F] thing.
[Dm] Oh teacher, [C] I [Bb] need you, [Dm] like a little [C] child.
[Am] You got [Dm] something [C] in you [Bb] to drive school [C] for a while.
