A                          E
Her voice is echoed in my mind
                             F#m  D
I count the days till she is mine
A                                     E
Can't tell my friends cos they will laugh
                       F#m     D
I love a girl from senior class
A                                   E
I daydream my way through freshman math
                           F#m     D
While she fills out her college apps
A                                 E
I'll show her a world where we belong
                                F#m    D
But she'll have to drive us to the prom

Chorus:
                       A
That's what I go to school for.
                     D
Even though it is a real bore
                 F#m               E
You can call me crazy, She is so amazing
                       A
That's what I go to school for.
                     D
Even though it is a real bore
                       F#m
Girlfriends I've had plenty,
                       E
But she's the one that I need
                        D     E
That's what I go to school for.
                        A
That's what I go to school for

Her boyfriend's just turning nineteen
But that doesn't bother me
He's back at college out of town
I find a reason to go around
I climb a tree outside her home
To make sure that she's alone
She looks up and sees me there
Still, I can't help but stop and stare

Chorus:
That's what I go to school for
Even though it is a real bore
You can call me crazy
She is so amazing
That's what I go to school for
Even though it is a real bore
Girlfriends, I've had plenty
But she's the one that I need
That's what I go to school for
That's what I, what I, what I go to school for

F#m
Everyone that you see all day knows you're
 E
looking at me in a different way
D
I guess that's why my marks are getting so high
F#m                              E
I can see those tell tale signs telling me that
I was on your mind
D
I could see that you want it more when you told
              Bm
me that I'm what you go to
F#m      E                       D
school for I'm what you go to school for

She's made her choice and I'm the one
At least 'til graduation comes
We drive past school to wave goodbye
My friends, they can't believe their eyes

Chorus:
That's what I go to school for
Even though it is a real bore
You can call me crazy
She is so amazing
That's what I go to school for
Even though it is a real bore
Girlfriends, I've had plenty
But she's the one that I need
That's what I go to school for
That's what I, what I, what I go to school for
