CHORUS:
 D    Dsus4        D     Dsus4  D
Will you stay in our Lovers' Story
D   Dsus4    D        D5 Dsus4 D
If you stay you won't be sorry

With a couple of kooks hung up on romancing

REPEAT CHORUS, INTRO

D                                      A
We bought a lot of things to keep you warm and dry
        D                           A
And a funny old crib on which the paint won't dry
 D               G
I bought you a pair of shoes
 D                            G
A trumpet you can blow and a book of rules
    D                                A
On what to say to people when they pick on you

Cos if you stay with us you're gonna be pretty kookie too

CHORUS, INTRO

And if you ever have to go to school
Remember how they messed up this old fool
Don't pick fights with the bullies or the cads
Cos I'm not much cop at punching other people's dads
And if the homework brings you down
Then we'll throw it on the fire
And take the car downtown

CHORUS (key change):
 E    Esus4        E   Esus4  E
Will you stay in our Lovers' Story
E   Esus4    E        E5 Esus4 E
If you stay you won't be sorry
    D                D D/C#
Cos we believe in you
Bm           E       Bm       E
Soon you'll grow so take a chance
         Bm       E    Bm           G   D
With a couple of kooks hung up on romancing

REPEAT CHORUS WITH KEY CHANGE
