C D
Those school girl days
F C
of telling tales and biting nails are gone
C D
But in my mind
F C
I know they will still live on and on
B7 Em
But how do you thank someone
B7 Em
who has taken you from crayons to perfume
D G D A7 (xx2223)
It isn't easy but I'll try
D
If you wanted the sky
C D
I'd write across the sky in letters
C D
that would soar a thousand feet high
G A (riff)
To Sir, With Love
C D
The time has come
F C
for closing books and long last looks must end
C D
And as I leave
F C
I know that I am leaving my best friend
B7 Em
A friend who taught me right from wrong
B7 Em
and weak from strong, that's a lot to learn
D G D A7
What! what can I give you in return
D
If you wanted the moon
C D
I would try to make a start But I
C D
would rather you let me give my heart
G A (riff)
To Sir, With Love
C D
Those awkward years
F C
have hurried by why did they fly away
C D
Why is it Sir
F C
children grow up to be people some day
B7 Em
What takes the place of climbing trees
B7 Em
and dirty knees in the world outside
D G D A7
What is there for you I can buy
D
If you wanted the world
C D
I'd surround it with a wall I'd scrawl
C D
These words with letters ten feet tall
G A (riff) (end on strummed C)
To Sir, With Love

This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official LULU tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
