I remember how it started, on a sunny summer's day.
Am            A              D                 G
I was looking out my window, all the kids were out 
   D    A
to play.
D                                       Em
Then she said, hey, let's play 'May I,' out into 

the street I came..(ba-ba-ba-ba.)
A                                           D
Ever since that sunny morning (ba-ba-ba-ba) nothing 
         G         D
has been quite the same.


CHORUS:
      C      A
May I take a giant step into your heart?
               D
May I give you love and sweet affection?
             A
May I take a giant step into your heart?
                  D
So, that you will look in my direction?

May I take a giant step into your heart?

Though I may be getting older (ba-ba-ba-ba) 'May I's' 

still my favorite game.
Am                          A
Girl, I got to have your permission (ba-ba-ba-ba)

if I need to be the same.

Show me if you really want me (ba-ba-ba-ba) show 

me if you really care (ba-ba-ba-ba.)

Give me just a little sign, girl (ba-ba-ba-ba)
D                G       D
make me feel you want me here.

               D
May I give you love and sweet affection?
             A
May I take a giant step into your heart?
                  D
