A white sport coat and a pink carnation.

7   -6     -5   5   5  -4    5
I'm all dressed up for the dance.

6   7     5     6  -4  5  -5  -5  5 -4
A white sport coat and a pink carnation,

 7  -6  -5 5  5    5  4
And all alone in romance.

Once you told me long ago 

5  -5    6  -5   5   -5   6
To the prom with me you'd go.

-5   6       -6     6   -5    6  -6
Now you've changed your mind it seems,

 6  -6  -7   -6    6   -6   -7
Someone else will hold my dreams.

6   7    5     6   -4  5  -5  -5 5 -4
A white sport coat and a pink carnation,

7  -6 -5  5     5    4
And in a blue, blue mood.
