[Intro 1]
[D]

[Verse 1]
There's a [D]girl downtown with
freckles on her nose
Pencils in her pocket and
ketchup on her clothes
Shes a [G]real nice [D]girl,
[G]pretty as a plate
[D]The boys call her Katie when
they ask her on a date
And [A]who knows Katie?
[G]Maybe you could [A]be the [D]one

[Verse 2]
There's a [D]boy outside
standin' in the rain
Hands are in his pockets he's a
wonderin why he came
He's a [G]real nice boy, slower than the fall
[D]The girls call him Billy if
they're callin' him at all
An[A]d who knows Billy?
[G]Maybe you could [A]be the [D]one

[Verse 3]
[Chorus] [G]But
hearts don't fly and
words don't sing
[D]Boys like [A]you can't [D]buy no ring
[G]Love's not stuck, it just moves slow
[A]Turn around a minute and

[Verse 4]
away we go
[A][D][G]
[A]Billy [D]walked inside,
he ordered up a drink
He started gettin' nervous and a
wonderin' what she'd think
She [G]thought he looked nice,
rough around the seam[A]s
[D]Just the kind of boy who could
listen to her dreams
And [A]who knows Katie? [G]Maybe he could
[A]be the [D]one

[Interlude 1]
[D][A][D]
[G][F][D]
[A][G][A][D]

[Verse 5]
Well, [D]they stepped outside,
took a little walk
Katie held his hand and
Billy even talked
[G]They sat by the pond,
they didn't make a sound
[D]The night fell easy as
the moon came down
And [A]who knows baby?
[G]Maybe we could [A]be the
[D]one

[Interlude 2]
[D][G][D]
[G][A]
[Chorus] There's a [D]girl downtown

[Verse 6]
[D]
with
freckles on her nose
Pencils in her pockets and
ketchup on her clothes
She's a [G]real nice girl, pretty as a plate
[A]The[D] boys call her Katie when
they ask her on a date
And [A]who knows

[Verse 7]
Katie?
[G]Maybe you could [A]be the [D]one
[A]Who knows Katie?
[G]Maybe you could [A]be [D]the one
[A]Who knows baby?
[G]Maybe we could [A]be the [D]one
