1. When I think back on all the crap I learned in high school,

Em                   A                     D    - Em

    it's a wonder I can think at all.

      A                      D           D7                     G       

    And though my lack of education hasn't hurt me none,

Em                         A                   D

    I can read the writing on the wall.

 

  D           G - B7 - E                                 Am              D

Kodachro……….me, they give us those nice bright colors,

                              G           C

they give us the greens of summers,

                            A           D                      G    B7   E

makes you think all  the world's a sunny day, oh yeah !

            Am      D                                     G      C

I got a Nikon camera, I love to take a photograph,

                             A             D                     G

2. If you took all the girls I knew when I was single,

Em                                     A                     D       - Em

    and brought them all together for one night,

   A                      D                           D7            G

    I know they'd never match my sweet imagination,

Em                                  A                             D

    and ev'rything looks worse in black and white.
