[Intro]

D F#m Em A

[Verse 1]

       D                           Bm
The boys were singing shing-a-ling
         Em
The summer night we met
A
You were tan and seventeen
    D                       Em A
O how could I forget
          D                      Bm
When every star from near and far
         Em
Was watching from above
A                                              D
Watching two teenagers fall in love

[Verse 2]

       D                              Bm
The way we danced was not a dance
         Em
But more a long embrace
       A
We held on to each other and
      D                      Em A
We floated there in space
          D               Bm
And I was shy to kiss you while
          Em
The whole wide world could see
      A                                                D
So shing-a-ling said everything for me

[Chorus]

         Em                 A
And O the poor old old folks
          D
They thought we'd lost our minds
Bm                              F#m
They could not make heads or tails
            Em                        A
Of the young folks' funny rhymes
      D                     Bm
But you and I knew all the words
               Em               Gm
And we always sang along to
D               Bm              Em
O sham-a-ling-dong-ding
                A              D
Sham-a-ling-dang-dong

Bm Em A

[Verse 3]

        D                   Bm
So after years and after tears
        Em
And after summers past
        A
The old folks tried to warn us
               D                        Em A
How our love would never last
       D                       Bm
And all we'd get was soaking wet
          Em
From walking in the rain
           A                                           D
And singing sham-a-shing-a-ling again

[Chorus]

         Em                  A
And O the poor old old folks
          D
They smile and walk away
        Bm
But I bet they did some
F#m                  Em                         A
Sham-a-lama-ding-dong in their day
D                             Bm
I bet that they still close their eyes
          Em                 Gm
And I bet they sing along to
D               Bm             Em
O sham-a-ling-dong-ding
              A
Sham-a-ling-dang-dong

[Bridge]

Bm
O those sweet old love songs
D
Every word rings true
              Bm
Sham-a-ling-dong-ding means sweetheart
               Em                             A
Sham-a-ling-dang-dong does too
D                                          Bm
And it means that right here in my arms
Em                       Gm
That's where you belong
               D                  Bm             Em
And it means sham-a-ling-dong-ding
               A               D
Sham-a-ling-dang-dong

[Outro]

Bm Em A
