		C                                                F    G
		I am a civilized girl, I comb my hair, I love my family
		C
		but I confess my very favourite refuge is my local
		F        G
		library.
		F                            G
		The musty bookshelves are so picturesque
		F                           G               C     C
		But most of all I like the guy behind the desk.


		CHORUS:
		F        C
		Hey, Mr. Library Boy, please wontcha
		F                                 C
		show me a little Heinlein or some Leo Tolstoy
		F                          C
		You don't know I exist but you have my heart
		G
		Wontcha stamp my card?

		C  C

		C                                                     F   G
		The way you put away books, the way you always articulate
		C                                
		The way you gimme a look when I talk too loud, it makes my poor heart 
		F       G
		palpitate
		F                          G
		When I go home, the world loses its zest
		F                                 G               C    C                    
		Can't wait 'til I get back to the guy behind the desk.


		CHORUS:
		F        C
		Hey, Mr. Library Boy, please wontcha
		F                                 C
		show me a little Heinlein or some Leo Tolstoy
		F                          C
		You don't know I exist but you have my heart
		G
		Wontcha stamp my card?

		C                                                       F  G
		I've got a tendency to keep books 'til they're way overdue
		C          
		I get the notices but it's been six years, where's my special
		F           G
		visit from you?  
		F                            G
	    You smile at me and I can't help but obsess
		F                           G               C   C
		how I'd like to catalog the guy behind the desk.
		
          
		CHORUS:
		F        C
		Hey, Mr. Library Boy, please wontcha
		F                                 C

		F                          C
		You don't know I exist but you have my heart
		G
		Wontcha stamp my card?

        Oh Mr. Library Boy, by now you surely know I'm not a newcomer
                  C                             F
