 "Carlene"
 by Phil Vassar
 *Chord changes are really fast in this song, I tried to write them above the 
 exact word in the lyric the chord changes at*
 
 Intro: E   A   B <--(3 times)
        E   A   B  C#m
        E   A   B
 
 E              C#m      A         B
 I was lousy at math, a failed historian
 E       C#m      A      B
 Carlene was the valedictorian
        E         C#m          A       B
 I was the quarterback in the back of class
     E            C#m     A          B     E   A   B
 She was the whiz kid in horned rim glasses
 E                C#m         A          B
 It's been a long time since I've been around
 E               C#m     A        B
 Since I stepped foot on my old stomping ground
 E       C#m        A          B
 I ended up by the old school yard
           E             C#m      A          B
 And this red head pulls up in a blue sports car
            F#m        E             A              B
 And says, "I bet you don't remember, I guess it's been forever."
 F#m        G#m       A           B
 It took a second to put it all together and I said...
 
 Chorus:
 E      B     A
 Ooh la la la la la
   B      E       A   C#m  B
 Looking good Carlene
 E      B     A
 Woh my my my my my
 B          E      C#m
 Times been good to you
         A           B
 If you know what I mean
 F#m                    E
 Girl you glitter like Hollywood
      F#m     G#m
 Good gosh Carlene
      A        B          E   A   B   C#m   E   A   B
 You sure are lookin good
 
 
 E          C#m          A        B
 She said, “Hop in let's go for a spin
          E           C#m            A         B
 Tell me whatcha been doing boy and where you been”
          E        C#m        A               B
 I said, “I write songs, you probably didn't know, but I
 E            C#m            A       B     E   A   B
 Finally got a couple out on country radio”
            E       C#m     A           B
 She said, "What a switch, ain't life funny, I've got a
 E  C#m         A            B
 Ph.D  now I'm modeling for money."
 E        C#m        A       B
 Imagine little miss 4 point 0 just
 E               C#m            A        B
 Smiling for the camera on the cover of Vogue
          F#m                           E          A              B
 I said, “You've come a long way since graduation, let me say without 
 reservation
 F#m       G#m          A          B
 You've surpassed everyone's expectations”
 
 
 CHORUS
 
            C#m                B
 I said, “I hope to see you again someday”
             A                    B
 She said, “Another ten years is too long to wait
 F#m     G#m       A          B
 Pick me up at my momma's at eight”
 
 I said...
