(Intro)  A# F A# 
                 A#                   F 
(1st Verse)  It wasn't the books that I didn't read,  
                             A# 
It wasn't the teachers that tried to teach me. 
                        F 
It wasn't that varsity baseball coach,  
                      A# 
Kept on tellin' them locker room jokes, it was: 
                            F 
  
Bobby Ann Mason, back in high school. 
                           A# 
She was way too cute, she was way too cool.   
                        F 
How was I gonna get an education, 
                       A# 
Settin' right back of Bobby Ann Mason. 
 
(Lead)  A#  F  A# 
 
              A#                            F     
(2nd Verse)  Yeah! Bobby knew her hist'ry, Bobby knew her French, 
                            A# 
Bobby knew how to keep the boys in suspense. 
                                 F 
She'd tease with a touch, she'd tease with a kiss, 
                              A# 
I was three long years being teased by, pretty Miss: 
 
(Chorus)   (Lead) 
 
             A#                     F 
(3rd Verse)  Yeah! Bobby graduated first in her class. 
                 A# 
Me, I graduated closer to last. 
                            F 
Bobby went to college, she got a degree, 
                           A# 
I got a guitar so I could sing about, me and: 
 
(Chorus) 
 
(Lead)  B  F#  B  F#  B 
 
              B                                   F# 
(4th Verse)  Yeah! The years have taught me, the basics of math. 
                  B  
Divorce divides; time subtracts; Takes away your hair,  
       F#                                               B 
Takes away your jump shot, but it ain't gonna take all mem'ries I got of: 
 
(Chorus) 
 
 F#                                                 B 
Back in high school, she was way too cute, she was way too cool. 
                  F#                              B 
I got most of my education settin' right back of Bobby Ann Mason. 
 F#                   B (STOP) 
Settin right back of Bobby Ann Mason.
