Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, (Bb)ah, ah,

She’ll o pen up the (C5)door and say, “Are you in (Bb)sane, -

Tell her Say, it’s been a (C)long six (Bb)months,

when and you were too a (C5)fraid to tell her what you (Bb)want, want.

That’s how it (F)works,

that’s how you get the (Bb)girl.

And then you say, (F)“I want you for (C)worse or for bet ter.

(Bb)I would wait for ev er and ev er.

(F)Broke your heart.

I’ll (C)put it back to geth er.

(Bb)I would wait for ev er and ev er.”

And that’s how it (C)works.

That’s how you get the (Bb)girl, girl.

And that’s how it (C)works.

That’s how you get the (Bb)girl, girl.

Re mind her how it (C5)used to ing from the (Bb)be, be,

with pic tures in the (C5)frames of kiss es on in (Bb)cheeks, cheeks.

Tell her how you must have (C)lost your (Bb)mind

when you left her all a (C5)lone and nev er told her (Bb)why, why.

That’s how it (F)works,

that’s how you lost the (Bb)girl.

And now you say, (F)“I want you for (C)worse or for bet ter.

(Bb)I would wait for ev er and ev er.

(F)Broke your heart.

I’ll (C)put it back to geth er.

(Bb)I would wait for ev er and ev er.”

And that’s how it (C)works.

That’s how you get the (Bb)girl, girl.

And that’s how it (C)works.

That’s how you get the (Bb)girl, girl.

And (F)you

(C)know

(Bb)oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, that (F)I don’t

to go, oh, oh.

Re mind her how it (C5)used to (Bb)be:

pic tures in (C5)frames of kiss es on (Bb)cheeks.

And say you want me.

And then you say,

And that’s how it (C)works.

That’s how you get the (Bb)girl, girl.

And that’s how it (C)works.

That’s how you get the (Bb)girl, girl.

That’s how it (F)works.

That’s how you got the (Bb)girl.
