 DORIS & EDWIN: THE MOVIE
 by Christine Lavin
 The [D]first time that she saw him
   was in the [G]office canteen
 He was [Bb]buying a cup of coffee --
   [A]three sugars and double cream
 [D]Two weeks later she saw him
   at the ele[G]vator banks
 His [A]hands were full, she held the doors for
   [G]him and he said [D]thanks
 
 Now she's in [Bm]love
 For her it doesn't take [F#]much
 She's in [Bm]love
 But this is not your [A]ordinary office crush
 For [Bm]she works in the [D]basement
   [G]near the boiler room door
 And [D]he works in [A]accounting
   on the [G]37th [D]floor
 
 Now I'm not [D]much of a mathematician
   but even [G]I can see
 That in a [Bb]building of 37 floors
   and [A]four thousand employees
 Her [D]chances of running into him were really
   [G]not that good
 Even though she [A]hung out at the canteen and rode the elevator
   [G]every spare minute she [D]could
 
 'Cause she's in [Bm]love
 And she don't even know his [F#]name (it's Edwin)
 She's in [Bm]love
 Love can be [A]such a cruel cruel game
 For [Bm]she works in the [D]basement
   [G]near the boiler room door
 And [D]he works in [A]accounting
   on the [G]37th [D]floor
 
 (And by the way, did I happen to mention...)
 That when this [A]building was constructed
   it was [Bm]done improperly
 And [A]one day on the fourth floor
   there was a [Bm]short in the electricity
 It [A]burned up walls and desks and chairs
   and [Bm]all the secretaries
 And the [A]alarm did not go off until it
   [Bm]reached floor 33
 Floor thirty-[A]three, floor thirty-[Bm]three
 
 (And on the upper floors people were running and screaming and
 jumping out of windows to get away from the flames -- it was
 gross)
 
 Now the [A]woman in the basement,
   [Bm]she ran up the stairs
 [A]Out the emergency exit
   [Bm]into the fresh air
 [A]She looked up because just then
   [Bm]it began to shower
 That's [A]when she saw her true love coming...
   one [Bm]hundred miles an hour
 Oh-[A]oh, Oh [Bm]no....
 
 I'm not [D]much of a mathematician,
   but even [G]I can see
 The [Bb]chances of him landing on her
   were [A]very slim indeed (but he did!)
 So they [D]buried them together
   the [G]following day
 And even [A]now when I ride the elevator
   [G]I can hear someone [D]say
 
 She was in [Bm]love
 For her it didn't take [F#]much
 She was in [Bm]love
 But this was not your [A]ordinary office... crush
 For [Bm]she worked in the [D]basement
   [G]near the boiler room door
 And [D]he worked in [A]accounting
   on the [G]37th floor
 
 [Bm]She worked in the [D]basement
   and [G]he the 37th floor
 But [D]fate brought them to[A]gether,
   they [G]flirted never[D]more
 
 Nevermore, nevermore...
