Tom: Em

 G        Em  Am       D
(Ya-ya-ya-ya..ya-ya-ya-ya..)
 G        Em  Am       D
(Ya-ya-ya-ya..ya-ya-ya-ya..)


[Verse 1]
G                         Bm
I'm sitting all alone and feeling blue.
C             G                    E
I'm wondering if he found somebody new.
C                           G     E
Whoever thought that I'd be going through..
Am            D     G
heartaches at sweet sixteen.


[Chorus]
 G        Em  Am       D
(Ya-ya-ya-ya..ya-ya-ya-ya..)


[Verse 2]
G                          Bm
He wouldn't speak to me at school today.
C            G                      E
He made real sure to look the other way.
C          D               G     E
What did I do to him, what did I say?
          Am            D     G
Oh, these heartaches at sweet sixteen.


[Bridge]
C                 D
Can (ya-ya-ya-ya) I (ya-ya-ya-ya) make 
    G
him care at all?
C                  B                 Em
I'll (ya-ya-ya-ya) die (ya-ya-ya-ya) if
   A       D
he doesn't call.


[Verse 3]
G                        Bm
No matter how my parents tease and laugh.
C             D                 E
I'll wear his ring and kiss his photograph.
C               D             G        E
They just don't understand or know the half 
   Am            D     G
of heartaches at sweet sixteen.


[Chorus]
 G        Em  Am       D
(Ya-ya-ya-ya..ya-ya-ya-ya..)
 G        Em  Am       D
(Ya-ya-ya-ya..ya-ya-ya-ya..)


[Verse 4]
G                        Bm
No matter how my parents tease and laugh.
C             D                 E
I'll wear his ring and kiss his photograph.
C               D             G        E
They just don't understand or know the half 
   Am            D     G
of heartaches at sweet sixteen.


[Outro]
 G        Em  Am       D     G C
(Ya-ya-ya-ya..ya-ya-ya-ya..)
Am            D     G
Heartaches at sweet sixteen.
