Brand New Key

By Melanie Safka

Key of D

D
I rode my bicycle past your window last night
A7
I roller skated to your door at daylight
D
It almost seems like you're avoiding me
G                           A7
I'm okay alone, but you got something I need

      D
Well, I got a brand new pair of roller skates,

you got a brand new key

I think that we should get together and try them out you see
G
I been looking around awhile,

you got something for me
A7  D
Oh! I got a brand new pair of roller skates,
                    D
you got a brand new key

D
I ride my bike, I roller skate, don't drive no car
A7
Don't go too fast, but I go pretty far
    D
For somebody who don't drive

I been all around the world
G                           A7
Some people say, I done all right for a girl

    D
Oh, yeah yeah

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah
                G
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah
    A           D
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah

D
I asked your mother if you were at home
A7
She said, yes .. but you weren't alone
    D
Oh, sometimes I think that you're avoiding me
G                              A7
I'm okay alone, but you've got something I need

      D
Well, I got a brand new pair of roller skates,

you got a brand new key

I think that we should get together and try them out you see
G
La la la la la la la la, la la la la la la
A7  D
Oh! I got a brand new pair of roller skates,
                    D
you got a brand new key
