On the tiny blue transistor radio 



C            G7     C        F                   G7 
He bought it for my birthday just one short year ago 

     F         C          G7  C 
This tiny blue transistor radio 
  
C            G7       C               F              G7 
We stayed up late and listened to the music soft and low 

       F         C          G7  C 
On the tiny blue transistor radio 



        F                               C 
And the man at the radio station made a special dedication 

   D7                               G7 
To Jimmy and the girl that he loves so 

C         G7         C            F           G7 
We kissed each other gently as we listened so intently 

       F         C          G7  C 
To the tiny blue transistor radio 



C            G7       C         F              G7 
And now just one year later his love for me is gone 

     F           C            G7     C 
He's out tonight with his new love I know 
  
C          G7         C           F                 G7 
And I just heard them playing the one we called our song 

       F         C          G7  C 
On the tiny blue transistor radio 



        F                               C 
And the man at the radio station made a special dedication 

   D7                               G7 
To Jimmy and the girl that he loves so 

C         G7       C                   F            G7 
Her happy eyes are glistening while my sad heart is listening 

       F         C          G7  C 
To the tiny blue transistor radio  

   F         C          G7  C 
My tiny blue transistor radio
