           G                      Am7              C               D
My little third grade hand wrote "I love you" on a note of yellow paper

C                 G/B                  A      A#Dim7         D

Verse 2 :

     G                 Am7                 C               D
The years flew by so quickly, and there we were in junior high
C               G/B               Part V2 & D - Fill ( 1'st Part )
I realized that I still loved her so
      G                Am7        C             D
So I called her up and told her exactly how I felt
C                 G/B                  A      A#Dim7         D
Then she said there's something that you really ought to know

            Am7    D                 G   D/F#    Em
I'm already taken, you spoke up too late
           Am7           D                    G
I love somebody else, so you'll just have to wait

Who's now the mother, of our ....

     G                   Am7         C                D
... little blonde-haired boy, who's to our hearts so close
   C                 G/B         Part V2 & D - Fill ( 1'st Part )
I hate to think how fast he's growing up
      G           Am7                C               D
Last night I overheard them, as she tucked him into bed
         C                G/B          A      A#Dim7      D
He said "Mommy will you marry me?" and this is what she said

I love your daddy, son, so you'll just have to wait
            Am7    D                 G   D/F#    Em
I'm already taken, you spoke up too late
