Em*                    C*                D*
   Not long ago in my high school days
                         G*        Em*
I watched a girl from so far away
                   C*                D*
But every time she passed me by
                         G*             Em*
Turned my head away and quietly sighed
                             C*              D*
And when she walked by, her hair would dance
                    G*                   Em*
A secret tango that only I could understand
                               C*         D*
And when she’d ask me for the time of day
                               G*
I’d look her in the eyes and quietly say


[Chorus]

    G     C    D                          Em
Oh Gura, Gura, do you have any clue who I am?
                      C
Listen up cause I’ll tell ya once
             D                           G
And I’ll explain myself the best that I can, whoa~
 G     C    D                                   Em
Gura, Gura you don’t know me so I'll have to persist, (whistle)
                     C
I’m kinda shy so no wonder why
 D                    G
Gura doesn’t know I exist


[Verse 2]

Em                     C           D
    Class to class, I followed her
                   G                     Em
But I swore I did leave her undisturbed
                               C            D
And if she’d ever stopped and turned around
                              G                  Em
I’d get so nervous that I’d stare at the ground
                        C        D
And then one day in photography
                             G                   Em
I found a contact print that I could not believe
                           C         D
And there she was staring back at me
                        G
So I took her home so quietly


[Chorus]

    G     C    D                          Em
Oh Gura, Gura, do you have any clue who I am?
                      C
Listen up cause I’ll tell ya once
             D                           G
And I’ll explain myself the best that I can, whoa~
 G     C    D                                   Em
Gura, Gura you don’t know me so I'll have to persist, (whistle)
                     C
I’m kinda shy so no wonder why
 D                    G
Gura doesn’t know I exist

[Verse 3]

Em*      C*  D*                       G*          Em*
   01/17/98 has been a day that I’ve come to hate
                      C*         D*
As I walked into the video store
                       G*                   Em*
There she stood as my jaw fell to the floor
                      C*             D*
Tapping her toe, and waiting in line
                 G*              Em*
With a movie and Ina by her side
                 C*              D*
Why did I bother, Why did I care
                      N.C.
About this girl named Gawr Gura


[Chorus 2]

 G     C    D                              Em
Gura, Gura, you’ll never get to know who I am
                     C                        D                           G
This is goodbye so please don’t cry and I'll let you down as softly as I can, oh~
 G     C    D                             Em
Gura, Gura, another name to cross off my list
                  C                       D                          G
Another life, it could’ve been nice, but Gura doesn't know what she missed
