Verse:

          F            Bb    C Bb
She was only sixteen, only sixteen,
                 F
But I loved her so,
                      Bb       C
She was too young to fall in love,
    Bb     C            F
And I was too young to know,




       F
We'd laugh and we'd sing,

    Bb        C Bb
and do funny things,
                         F
And it made our hearts glow,

                      Bb       C
She was too young to fall in love,
    Bb     C            F
And I was too young to know,



    Bb                 F
So why did I give my heart so fast,
    Bb                 F
It never will happen again,
    Bb             F
But I was a mere child of sixteen,
 Bb(hold)               C (hold)
I've aged a year since then,




          F         
She was only sixteen,
