Em
Boy meets girl on the playground of life
C                      D
Falls in love for the very first time
Em                              C
Late at night he sees her alone, but
                         D
she's the type that can never be owned

Am               C                       Am
He can't get her off his mind, but she knows
                C
he'll get over her in time
         G     Bm   Em    D    C
And the world goes round and round

Chorus:
           Em              C D
She goes straight for the heart
                         Em C D
She serves it sweet and cold
               Em              C D
But she goes straight for the heart
                  Em        C           D
'Cause that’s the only thing that she's ever known

Boy sees girl on the poor side of town
A city princess with her very own crown
He's too young to be taking such a chance
'Cause she walks the streets in the name of romance

Everywhere she goes he's there and she knows,
he's just another fool who cares
And the world goes round and round

Chorus

Everywhere she goes he's there and she knows,
he's just another fool who cares
And the world goes round and round

Chorus:
She goes straight for the heart,
she serves it sweet and cold
But she goes straight for the heart
'Cause that's the only thing that
she's ever known - x4
