[C] [Fm] [Ab]
[Cm] [Bb] [Eb]
Sweet young thing of [G] sixteen, thought [C] I'd step out one night, [Ab] alone to get [Cm] the thrill
and life [Fm] I'd miss.
[Ab] I met a youth, [Bb] a bit [G] uncool, [Eb] although [G] he seemed alright.
[C]
[F] I knew him but
I'm on my [G] way to be [Bb] kissed.
[Eb] I [Bb] got home next [C] day with a swollen head.
[Gm] My [C] girlfriend asked
if I'd come to the party.
I said I'd come, I said I'd come.
I said I'd come.
I said I
had [F] fun I said.
Was [Eb] I drunk?
Was I [G] handsome?
And did my [C] mom give me hell?
Did [Ab] I get a thrill?
And am I full of [Fm] quiver?
Was [Bb] he rough?
Did I care?
And am [G] I glad I [Cm] fell?
Every [F] time I
think of him do I [Bb] shiver.
[Eb] Was he hot?
And was [G] I?
And would he [C] stand for me?
He would
[Ab] not, did I [C] lie?
Does he still [Ab] think I'm a baby?
If I was, am I still?
Do [Eb] I care?
Don't
be [Cm] still.
Was I drunk?
Was he handsome?
And did my mom [Eb] give me hell?

[Eb] Was I drunk?
Was [G] he handsome?
And [C] did my mom give me hell?
With his [Ab] hand loosing [Cm] or [Fm] refusing?
Did he [Bb] fight?
Was I blue?
[G] And almost came [Cm] to tell?
I [F] don't know yet but this time he
was yielding.
[Eb] I said stop, [Gb] please behave.
[Ab] Now what's the use of raving?
He said [C] kill,
so I gave.
[Gm] After all what was I saving?
Am I [Eb] glad?
Holy [G] gee have I [C] had fun you asking
me?
Was I drunk?
Was he handsome?
And [Bb] did my mom give me hell?
