This Boy Is Mine

Intro: (F G) C 

    C 
He told me that he loved me 
I didn't have a clue 
    F 
Now I can see it in his eyes 
    C 
I know that it is true 
     G 
And if you ever wonder 
         F 
This is why I'm feeling fine 
             G     F 
This boy is mine 
             C 
This boy is mine 


My mama said "Be careful" 
Just what all mothers say 
     F 
And papa said "Now listen, girl 
         C 
Don't throw your life away" 
          G 
But I've never been so sure of someone 
 F 
All along the line 
             G     F 
This boy is mine

         Dm   G 
My mama told me 
       Em                 Am 
"You shouldn't give your heart away 
    Dm 
No need to hurry 
 G                    C     C7 
Darling, you've got time" 
             Dm    E 
But when he holds me 
                    Am 
There's no need to worry 
F                           G 
I already know this boy is mine 


     C 
He loves me like no other 
Like no other boy 
    F 
I know he's gonna treat me right 
      C 
And that's what I enjoy 
     G 
And if you ever wonder 
          F 
Why I'm feeling so divine 
             G     F 
This boy is mine 
             C
