Mary Wells - You beat me to the punch

^CThat day, I first saw you (whoa, w^Amhoa) passing by.. I ^Cwanted, to know your name, but ^AmI...was much too ^Fshy. But I was ^Clooking at you so hard, that you ^Ammust have had a hunch. So, you ^Fcame up to me and asked me my name.

^FYou beat me to the ^Cpunch..that ^Amtime.. You beat me to the ^Cpunch..oh, oh, oh, ^Amoh. You beat me to the ^Cpun.un.un.^Amunch..

^CAfter..I had known you, for what seems like a long, long, ^Amtime. I ^Cwanted, wanted to ask you would you ^Amplease, please, be ^Fmine. Whenever ^Cyou came around, my heart would pound, so, you ^Ammust have had a hunch. So, you ^Fcame up to me and asked me to be yours.

^FYou beat me to the ^Cpunch..one more ^Amtime.. You beat me to the ^Cpunch..oh, oh, oh, ^Amoh. You beat me to the ^Cpun.un.un.^Amunch..

^FSince I loved you, I ^Fthought you would be true and ^Clove me, ^Amtender. So, I ^Clet my heart sur^Amrender..to ^Cyou, yes I ^Amdid. But ^FI found out, be^Fyond a doubt..one ^Cday, boy, you were a ^Amplayboy..who would ^Fgo away and leave me, ^Fblue.

^FSo, I ^Cain't gonna wait, around for you to put me down. This ^Amtime I'm gonna play my hunch..and ^Fwalk away this very day. ^FAnd beat you to the ^Cpunch, this ^Amtime. I'll beat you to the ^Cpunch, yes, I ^Amwill.

I'll ^Clet you know, now..how great it ^Amfeels...(Fade.)
