C#           A#m
Each time we have a quarrel
F#           G#
It almost breaks my heart.

´Cos I am so afraid

That we will have to part.

Each night I ask the stars up above 

Why must I be a teenager in love? 



One day I feel so happy,

Next day I feel so sad. 

I guess I´ll learn to take 

The good with the bad. 

Each night I ask the stars up above 

Why must I be a teenager in love? 


F#         G#
I cried a tear 
F#             G#
For nobody but you,
F#                 G#
I´ll be the lonely one 
F#                        G#
If you should say we´re through. 



Well, if you want to make me cry,

That won´t be so hard to do. 

And if you should say goodbye,

I´ll still go on loving you. 

Each night I ask the stars up above 

Why must I be a teenager in love? 


Why must I be a teenager in love? 

Why must I be a teenager in love? 

In love?
