Verse 1:
GCDG
Not long ago in my high school days, I watched a girl from so far away,
EmCDG
But every time she passed me by, I turned my head away and quietly sighed.
GCDG
And when she walked by her hair would dance, a secret tango that only I could understand,
EmCDG
And when she?d ask me for the time of day, I?d look her in the eyes and quietly say.
Chorus:
GCDG
Oh Kristina, Kristina, do you have any clue who I am? (HELL NO!)
EmCDG
So listen up cause I?ll tell ya once and I?ll explain myself the best that I can.
GCDG
Whoa! Kristina, Kristina, you don?t know me so I'll have to persist, (whistle)
EmCDG
I?m kinda shy so no wonder why, Kristina she don?t know I exist.

Verse 2:
GCDG
From class to class, I followed her, but I swore I'd leave her undisturbed,
EmCDG
And if she?d ever stopped and turned around, I?d get so nervous that I?d stare at the ground.
GCDG
And then one day in photography, I found a contact print that I could not believe,
EmCDG
and there she was staring back at me, so I took her home so quietly.
Chorus:
GCDG
Kristina, Kristina, do you have any clue who I am? (HELL NO!)
EmCDG
So listen up cause I?ll tell ya once and I?ll explain myself the best that I can.
GCDG
Kristina, Kristina, you don?t know me so I'll have to persist, (whistle)
EmCDG
I?m kinda shy so no wonder why, Kristina she don?t know I exist.

Verse 3:
GCDG
1.17.98 has been a day that I?ve come to hate,
EmCDG
As I walked into the video store, there she stood as my jaw fell to the floor.
GCDG
Tapping her toe, and waiting in line, with a movie and another guy,
EmCDG
Why did I bother, why did I care, about this girl named Kristina Behr?
Chorus:
GCDG
Oh Kristina, Kristina, you'll never get to know who I am? (YOUR LOSS!)
EmCDG
This is goodbye, so please don't cry and i'll let you down as softly as I can.
GCDG
Kristina, Kristina, another name to cross off my list.
EmCDG
Another life, it coulda been nice, but Kristina, she don't know what she missed.
