[C]Those school girl days[D]
of telling [F]tales and biting [C]nails are gone
[C]But in my mind[D]
I know they [F]will still live [C]on and on
[B7] But how do you [Em]thank someone
who has [B7]taken you from crayons to per[Em]fume
D G D A7 (xx2223)
It isn't easy but I'll try
If you [D]wanted the sky
I'd [C]write across the sky in [D]letters
that would [C]soar a thousand feet [D]high
G A (riff)
To Sir, With Love
[C] The time has come[D]
for closing [F]books and long last [C]looks must end
[C]And as I leave[D]
I know that [F]I am leaving [C]my best friend
[B7] A friend who taught me [Em]right from wrong
and [B7]weak from strong, that's a lot to [Em]learn
[D]What! what can I [G]give you in re[D]turn[A7]
If you [D]wanted the moon
[C]I would try to make a start But [D]I
would [C]rather you let me give my [D]heart
G A (riff)
To Sir, With Love
C D
Those awkward years
have hurried [F]by why did they [C]fly away
[C] Why is it Sir[D]
children grow [F]up to be [C]people some day
[B7] What takes the place of [Em]climbing trees
and d[B7]irty knees in the world out[Em]side
[D] What is there [G]for you I can [D]buy[A7]
If you [D]wanted the world
I'd sur[C]round it with a wall I'd [D]scrawl
These [C]words with letters ten feet [D]tall
G A (riff) (end on strummed C)
To Sir, With Love
