I threw a wish in the well.
Don’t ask me, I’ll nev er tell.
I looked to you as it fell and now you’re in my way.
I trade my soul for a wish, pen nies and dimes for a kiss.
I was n’t look in’ for this, but now you’re in my way.
Your stare was hold in’; (Gsus)ripped jeans, skin was show in’.
(Fsus2)Hot night, wind was blow in’.
(G)Where you think you’re go in’, ba by?
Hey, I just met you,
and this is cra zy,
but here’s my num ber,
so call me may be.
It’s hard to look right
(G)at you, ba (Am)by.
But here’s my num ber,
so call me may be.
Hey, I just met you,
and this is cra zy,
but here’s my num ber,
so call me may be.
And all the oth er boys
try to chase (Am)me.
But here’s my num ber,
so call me may be.
You took your time with the call, I took no time with the fall.
You gave me noth in’ at all, but still you’re in my way.
I beg and bor row and steal, pen at first sight and it’s real.
I did n’t know I would feel it, but it’s in my way.
Your stare was hold in’; (Gsus)ripped jeans, skin was show in’.
(Fsus2)Hot night, wind was blow in’.
(G)Where you think you’re go in’, ba by?

Be fore you came in to my (C)life, I (G)missed you so bad, I (F)missed you so bad, I (G)missed you so, so (F)bad.

This page shows “Call Me Maybe” by Carly Rae Jepsen in our color-coded kid songbook view — every note is colored by pitch (red C, orange D, yellow E, green F, blue G, purple A, pink B) and the lyrics sit directly under each note, so children can sing along while they play. The song is in the key of C at 90 BPM, a slightly more challenging arrangement — practice each phrase slowly first.
