One evening getting dark, [C] we first met [G] at the park
Just sitting by the fountain [D] all alone _
[G] I lifted up my hat [C] and then [G] began to chat
She said she'd [D] allow me to see the [G] planet home _
[C] Such a star I've never seen, [G] she's as pretty as a queen
She's as perfect as an angel [D] from above _
If she'd only be my wife, [C] I'd live happily [G] all my life
Without having to [D] be [G] a little woman _

_ _ _ [D] _ _ [G] _ _
If she were only mine, [C] I'd build a house [G] on the ground
And around it, so many fences [D] tall _
It would make me a jealous lady, [C] who'd think none [G] but me
Could get from [Dm] that beautiful little woman _
Such [C] a star I've never seen, she's [G] as pretty as a queen
She's as perfect as an angel from [A] above _
If [G] she'd only be my wife, I'd [C] live happily all [G] my life
Without having to [D] be a little [G] woman _

One evening getting late, [C] when I met her [G] at the gate
I asked her if she'd let me [D] in the fall _
[G] But she only turned away, [C] and nothing [G] but what she said
Without having [D] to be a [G] little woman _
Such a star I've never seen, she's as pretty as a queen
She's as perfect as an angel [D] from above _
[G] If she'd only be my wife, [C] I'd live happily all [G] my life
Without having [D] to be a [G] little woman
_ Without having to [D] be a little woman
