Teeny bopper my teenage love 
 
I caught your waves last night 
                   A 
It sent my mind to wonderin 
 
You're such a grove 
 
Please don't move 
                                   D 
Please stay in my lovehouse by the river 
D 
Fast talking guys with strange red eyes 
 
Have put things  in your head 
                          A 
And started your mind to wondering 
 
I love you so  please don't go 
                                  D 
Please stay here with me in Mendocino

Where life's such  a groove 
                          A 
You blow your mind in the morning 
 
We use to walk thru the park 
                                 D 
Make love along the way in Mendocino
