The Police - Don't Stand So Close To Me: guitar chords

D#
Young teacher, the subject
Gm
Of schoolgirl fantasy
EB
She wants him so badly
Gm
Knows what she wants to be

Inside her there's longing
This girl's an open page
Bookmarking, she's so close now
This girl is half his age

Chorus:
 D      A     D     A
Don't stand, don't stand so,
 Bm     A        D7/A    Em/A
Don't stand so close to me
 D      A     D     A
Don't stand, don't stand so,
 Bm     A        D7/A    Em/A D7/A Em/A
Don't stand so close to me

Her friends are so jealous
You know how bad girls get
Sometimes it's not so easy
To be the teacher's pet

Temptation, frustration
So bad it makes him cry
Wet bus stop, she's waiting
His car is warm and dry

Chorus

Loose talk in the classroom
To hurt they try and try
Strong words in the staffroom
The accusations fly

It's no use, he sees her
He starts to shake and cough
Just like the old man in
That book by Nabokov

Chorus

(Please don't stand so close to me)
Don't stand, don't stand so
Don't stand so close to me
(Please don't stand so close to me)
Don't stand, don't stand so
Don't stand so close to me
(Please don't stand so close to me)
Don't stand, don't stand so
Don't stand so close to me
(Please don't stand so close to me)
Don't stand, don't stand so
Don't stand so close to me
(Please don't stand so close to me)
Don't stand, don't stand so
Don't stand so close to me
(Please don't stand so close to me)
Don't stand, don't stand so
Don't stand so close to me
