[E] He thought you were [A] awesome.
He thought I was [B] awesome [E] my brother definitely [A] how
well
[B] [E] he
Said [A] there's nothing like your [B] smile [E] sort of subtle and perfect [A] and real
[E]
He said [A] you never knew how [B] wonderful [E] that smile could make someone
[A] feel [Bm]
[E] and he knew
[A] Whenever you get bored [D#] you [E] scribble stars on the cuffs of [A] your jeans [B]
[E] and he
Noticed that you still fill [A] out the [B] quizzes [E] that they put in those teen [A] magazines

[E] And he
Wondered [A] how you learn to [B] dance like [E] all the rest of the world is [A] in there
[B] [C#m] But he [F#] kept it all
