To Sir With Love

A B7

Those schoolgirl days,

D A

Of telling tales and biting nails are gone

B7

But in my mind,

D A

I know that they will still live on and on

G# C#m

But how do you thank someone,

G# C#m

who has taken you from crayons to perfume?

B7 E B F#7

It isn't easy, but I'll try

B A B7

If you wanted the sky, I would write across the sky in letters

A B7

That would soar a thousand feet high;

E F#

To Sir, with love

A B7

The time has come,

D A

for closing books and long last looks must end

B7

And as I leave,

D A

I know that I am leaving my best friend

G# C#m

A friend who taught me right from wrong,

G# C#m

And weak from strong, that's a lot to learn;

B7 E B F#7

What, what can I give you in return?

B A B7

If you wanted the moon I would try to make a start,

A B7

but I would rather you let me give my heart;

E F#

To Sir, with love
