Strum
D-DU-UDU
way  on the other side  of the hudson
  deep in the bosom of suburbia
i  met a young girl she  sang mighty fine
  "tears on my pillow" and "ave  maria".
standing  by the water fall  in paramus park
 she was working for the friends  of B.A.I.
 she was collecting quarters  in a paper cup
 she was looking for change  (and so was i).
she  was a jewish girl i  fell in love with her
  she wrote her number on the back  of my hand
 i called her up i was all  out of breath i said
 "come hear me play in a rock  and roll band".
i  took a shower and put  on my best blue jeans
 i picked her up in my new  VW van
 she wore a peasant blouse  with nothing underneath
 i said "hi" she said "yeah  i guess i am."
a--riel  (aaa...)a--riel  ...
we  had a little time we  were real hungry
 we went to dairy queen for something  to eat
she  had an onion ring she  had a pickle
 she forgot to tell me that she didn't  eat meat.
i  had a gig in the american  legion hall
 it was a dance for the volunteer  ambulance corps
 she was sittin in a corner  against the wall
 she would smile and i melted  all over the floor.
a--riel  (aaa...)a--riel..
 (sax solo)
i  took her home with me (we)  watchin' tv
 annette funicello and some guy  goin' steady
 i started foolin' around  with the vertical hold
 we got the munchies and i made  some spaghetti.
we  sat and talked into  the night
 but channel two was signin'  off the air
 i found the softness  of her mouth
 we made love to bombs bursting  in air...
a--riel  (aaa...)a--riel...
a--riel  (aaa...)a--riel...
way  on the other side  of the hudson
  deep in the bosom of suburbia
 i met a young girl she  sang mighty fine
  "tears on my pillow" and "ave  maria".
 "tears  on my pillow" and "ave  maria".
 "tears  on my pillow" and "ave  maria".
