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

     F# minorF#m        B minorBm    C# minorC#m         B minorBm
She said:   "Open up late bloomer,  it will make you smile"
F# minorF#m           B minorBm    C# minorC#m       B minorBm   (Fill 1| A:-2--0-2--0-2--0-2-4-2-0-)
  "I can see that fire burning,  in you little child."

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

       F# minorF#m          B minorBm    C# minorC#m       B minorBm
And she said:  "Come with me late bloomer,  for a little while"
F# minorF#m            B minorBm    C# minorC#m       B minorBm   (Fill 1)
  "I wanna see that fire burning,  in you little child."

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

      F# minorF#m          B minorBm   C# minorC#m       B minorBm
And he said:  "Come with us late bloomer,  for a little while"
F# minorF#m             B minorBm   C# minorC#m       B minorBm (Fill 1)
  "We wanna feel that fire burning,  in you little child."

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

       F# minorF#m         B minorBm   C# minorC#m       B minorBm
And she said:  "Au revoir, late bloomer,  for a little while"
F# minorF#m             B minorBm   C# minorC#m       B minorBm (Fill 1)
  "You gotta keep the fire burning,  in you little child."
