Did you say I've got a lot to learn
4    4   4    4   4  4  4  -3* -3*
Well don't think I'm try-ing not to learn
4      4     4    4   4   4   4  -3* -3*
Since this is the per-fect spot to learn
4*     -5* 4   4* -3*  4    3*  3   -2
Teach me to-night
-3*   -2 3*   3

Start-ing with the A-B-C  of it
4      4   4    4  4 4 4 -3* -3*
Right down to the X-Y-Z  of it
4      4   4   4  4 4 4 -3* -3*
Help me solve the mys-ter-y of it
4*   -5*  4    4* -3* 4  3*  3 -2
Teach me to-night
-3*   -2 3   -1*

The sky's a black-board high a-bove you
-1*  -2   2  -1*   -1*   4  -3* 3    3  
If a shoot-ing star goes by
3 -3* 3*    3*  -5   4  -3*
I'll use that star to write "I love you"
-3*   4  -3*   -3  -3  -5*  -5  -3* -3*
A thou-sand times a-cross the sky
-3* -5  -5*  -5  -5* 5     -5 -3*

One thing is-n't ver-y clear my love
4    4    4  4    4  4   4  -3*  -3*
Should the teach-er stand so near my love
4       4    4    4   4   4   4  -3*  -3*
Grad-u-a-tion's al-most here my love
4*  -5*4   4*  -3*  4    3*   3  -2
Teach me to-night
-3*   -2  3   -1*

I've played loves scenes in a flick or two
And I've also met a chick or two
But I still can learn a trick or two
Hey teach me tonight

I who thought I knew the score of it
Kind of think I should know much more of it
Off the wall, the bed, the floor of it
Hey teach me tonight

The midnight hours come slowly creeping
When there's no one there but you
There must be more to life than sleeping
Single in a bed for two

What I need most is post graduate
What I feel is hard to articulate
If you want me to matriculate
You'd better teach me tonight

What do you get for lessons
Teach me - come on and teach me - teach me tonight
