Standard (EADGBE)
That day, I first saw you (whoa, whoa) passing by..
I wanted, to know your name, but I...was much too shy.
But I was looking at you so hard,
that you must have had a hunch.
So, you came up to me and asked me my name.
Chorus
You beat me to the punch..that time..
You beat me to the punch..oh, oh, oh, oh.
You beat me to the pun.un.un.unch..
Whoa, whoa, whoa...
After..I had known you, for what seems like a long, long, time.
I wanted, wanted to ask you would you please, please, be mine.
Whenever you came around, my heart would pound,
so, you must have had a hunch.
So, you came up to me and asked me to be yours.
Chorus
You beat me to the punch..one more time..
You beat me to the punch..oh, oh, oh, oh.
You beat me to the pun.un.un.unch..
Yeahhh...
Since I loved you, I thought you would be true and love
me, tender.
So, I let my heart surrender..to you, yes I did.
But I found out, beyond a doubt..one day, boy,
you were a playboy..who would go away and leave me, blue.
So, I ain't gonna wait, around for you to put me down.
This time I'm gonna play my hunch..and walk away this very day.
And beat you to the punch, this time.
I'll beat you to the punch, yes, I will.
Outro
I'll let you know, now..how great it feels...(Fade.)
