[Verse 1]
A                                    E
When I turned 16 I was furious and restless
          D                                        A                     E
Got a Chelsea girl haircut and a plane ticket to Paris
A                                                      E
I stayed there with Pansy, he had a studio in the seventh
              D                                        A                         E
Lost his lover to a sickness, I slept beside him in his bed
A                                                    E
That's when I met Nancy, she was smoking on a gypsy
                 D                                                                            A    E
She had a ring in her nose and her eyes were changing like moodstones

          F#m                       Bm    C#m                       Bm
She said: "Open up late bloomer, it will make you smile"
F#m                        Bm     C#m                  Bm  
"I can see that fire burning, in you little child."

[Verse 2]
A                                                        E
Nancy came from Boston, she got in trouble very often
                  D                                               A                         E
Cause her parents had forgotten her, she escaped over the pond
A                                                         E
She was searching for the writer of a song that made her shiver
                     D                                A              E
She listened over and over on her Walkman cassette

                 F#m                               Bm      C#m              Bm
And she said: "Come with me late bloomer, for a little while"
F#m                            Bm     C#m                 Bm  
"I wanna see that fire burning, in you little child."

Bm            E
Ahaaa aha, oh ohohoho
Bm            E
Ahaaa aha, oh ohohoho
Bm            E
Ahaaa aha, oh ohohoho
F#m

Bm            E
Ahaaa aha, oh ohohoho
Bm            E
Ahaaa aha, oh ohohoho
Bm            E
Ahaaa aha, oh ohohoho

[Verse 3]
A                                            E
How could I resist her, I had longed for a big sister
          D                                      A              E
And I wanted to kiss her, but I hadn't the nerve
A                                           E
We found the writer, he was just some kid from Boston
          D                                   A                E
I was jealous as I watched him talking to her
A                                                       E
But man was I astonished, he didn't look like no Adonis
            D                                            A            E
But as Nancy had promised, he was heavy as lead

                  F#m                           Bm      C#m               Bm
And he said: "Come with us late bloomer, for a little while"
F#m                                  Bm    C#m                 Bm  
"We wanna feel that fire burning, in you little child."

[Verse 4]
A                                    E
Give me my candor, but I just had to have her
                  D                         A                    E
And at the time I didn't mind sharing with him
A                                        E
We rode in silence, all the way back to the seventh
           D                                      A          E
And I promised I'd write her but I never did

                  F#m                        Bm      C#m             Bm
And she said: "Au revoir, late bloomer, for a little while"
F#m                                Bm     C#m                 Bm  
"You gotta keep the fire burning, in you little child."

Bm             E
Ahaaa aha, oh ohohoho
Bm             E
Ahaaa aha, oh ohohoho
Bm             E
Ahaaa aha, oh ohohoho
F#m
woooouuuu
Bm             E
Ahaaa aha, oh ohohoho
Bm             E
Ahaaa aha, oh ohohoho
Bm             E
Ahaaa aha, oh ohohoho
F#m
woooouuuu
