[A] [E] [D]
[B] [F#m] [D] There's a girl downtown with freckles on her nose,
Pencils in her pockets and ketchup [F#] on her [G] clothes,
She's a real nice girl, pretty as a [D] plate,
The boys call her Katie when they ask her on a date,
[Am] And who knows, Katie, [G] maybe you [A] could [D] be the one.
[G] [A] [D] There's a boy outside, standing in the rain,
Hands are in his pockets, he's [Em] wondering why he came,
[G] He's a real nice boy, slower than a [D] fall,
The girls call him Billy if they're calling him at all,
[A] And who knows, Billy, [G] maybe you could [A] be [D] the one.
[G] But hearts don't fly, words don't [D] sing,
Boys [F#m] like you [D] can't buy no ring,
[G] Love's not stuck, it just moves slow,
[A] Turn around a minute and away we go.
[G]
[A] [Em] [D] Billy walked inside, he ordered up a drink,
He started getting nervous and wondered [Bm] what [Am] she'd [G] think,
She thought he looked [Gm]
nice, [G] rough around [A] the [D] seams,
Just the kind of boy who could listen to her [Am] dreams,
And who knows, Katie, [G] maybe [A] he could [D] be the one.

Well, he stepped outside, took a little walk,
Katie held his hand and [G] Billy [F#] even [G] talked,
They sat by the pond, they didn't make a sound,
[D] The night fell easy as the moon came down,
[A] And who knows, baby, [G] maybe [A] we could be [D] the one.
[C] [D] [G] But hearts don't fly, words don't [D] sing,
Boys like you can't buy no ring,
