I was ^Aworking part ^Gtime in a ^D/F#five-and-dime, My ^Gboss was Mr. McGee. ^D ^G ^A He told me several ^Gtimes that he ^D/F#didn't like my kind, 'Cause ^GI was a bit 2 leisurely. ^D ^G ^A Seems that I was ^Gbusy doing ^D/F#something close 2 nothing, But ^Gdifferent than the day before. ^D ^G ^A That's when I ^Gsaw her, ^D/F#ooh, I saw her She walked ^Gin through the out door (out door).

[Chorus]:

She wore a ^ARasp^Gberry beret ^D/F# The ^Gkind U find in a se^Dcond ^Ghand ^Astore Rasp^Gberry beret ^D/F# And ^Gif it was warm she wouldn't wear ^Dmuch ^Amore Rasp^Gberry beret ^D/F# I think I ^Elove ^Aher

^ABuilt like she ^Gwas, uh, she had the ^D/F#nerve 2 ask me If I ^Gplanned 2 do her any harm ^D ^G ^A So, look here, I put her on the back ^Gof my bike and-a ^D/F#we went riding ^GDown by old man Johnson's farm ^D ^G ^A I said now, overcast ^Gdays never ^D/F#turned me on But ^Gsomething about the clouds and her mixed ^D ^G ^A She wasn't ^G2 bright but ^D/F#I could tell When she kissed ^Gme

She knew how 2 get her kicks [Chorus]:

^DThe rain ^A/C#sounds so cool ^Dwhen it ^A/C#hits the barn roof, NC And the horses wonder who U are. ^DThunder ^A/C#drowns out what the ^Dlightning sees ^A/C# NC U feel like a movie star Listen, ^Gthey say ^F#mthe first time ^Eain't the greatest NC But I tell ya, if I had the chance 2 do it all again I ^Gwouldn't change a stroke 'cause ^F#mbaby I'm the most, With a ^Egirl as fine as she was then.
