^B So I'm the first one^B/E in again With the ^C#m9quiet and the window growing ^Bsnow ^B When I hear the furnace^B/E rouse itself From its ^C#m9slumber, somehow suddenly I ^Bknow

[Chorus 1]

As my ^E/G#eye stops on one^F#/A# curled up in my^B lesson plan ^D#m7 ^C#m7 ^E That I'm ^F#/A#just your... little ^Bampersand
