Chords in this song
Strum
D-DU-UDU
Andy would bicycle across town in the rain to bring you
candy and John would buy the gown for you to wear to the
prom with Tom the astronomer who'd name a star for you
But I'm the luckiest guy on the Lower East Side
Cause I've got wheels and you want to go for a ride
Harry is the one I think you'll marry, but it's
Chris that you kissed after school
Well I'm a fool, there's no doubt but when the sun comes out
And only when the sun comes out
(CHORUS)
Chords Optional)
The day is beautiful and so are you
My car is ugly but then, I'm ugly too
I know you'd never give me a second glance
But when the weather's nice all the other guys don't stand a chance
I know Professor Blumen makes you feel like a woman
But when the wind is in your hair you laugh like a little girl
So you share secrets with Lou, but we've got secrets too
Well, one: I only keep this heap for you
But I'm the ugliest guy on the Lower East Side
Cause I've got wheels and you want to go for a ride
x3)
Wanna go for a ride?
