Intro Chords-figure out the rhythm yourself
E     E     C#m     B

Verse:
E         E  C#m  B
Ramona,
E                      E  C#m  B
where have you been?
E                C#m         B        E  C#m  B
I couldn't go to sleep till you came in
E        C#m         B   E         C#m       B  E
Ramona, you're miss Oklahoma, and you miss Oklahoma
      C#m      B       E    C#m  B
I'll get you what you want

Chorus:

            A            E
There were days when a refrain
                    B                 F#
Would brighten our corner on hickory lane
                A                  E
When you would sing that song for me
     B
Just like your favorite singer

Verse:
E                            C#m B
Why'd you have to be so nice?
E                         C#m B
A wink and a girlie smile
E                                   C#m B
And why'd you have to punch my eye?
E
That was something
 C#m         B           A
But i still want you to stay

Bridge:
A           B           C#         D#
When I was younger I thought of myself
A           B           C#m        D#
I never dreamed i'd become like this
  A             B         C#m        D#
A snap of your fingers an end to the arguments

A        B        C#      D#    E
Anything for you, love

Chorus:
           A            E
There were days when a refrain
                    B                 F#
Would brighten our corner on hickory lane
                A                  E
When you would sing that song for me
     B
The only one you know
            A               E
But I know now, not at the start
                 B                   F#
We're going to pieces we're falling apart
               A                E
So won't you sing that song for me
     B
Just like your favorite singer
