'Is she really going out with him? 

Well, there she is let's ask her. 

Betty is that Jimmy's ring you're wearing? 

Uhm,Hum. 

Gee, it must be great riding with him. 

Is he picking you up after school today? 

By the way, where'd you meet him?'

I met him at the candy store. 
   Em 
He turned around and smiled at me..you get the picture? 

(Yes we see.) 
G7                                        C 
That's when I fell for..the leader of the pack.

C 
My folks were always putting him down.(down,down.) 
                                         Bb  G 
They said he came from the wrong side of town. 

(Whatcha mean when they said he came from the 

 wrong side of town?) 
F                       Em 
They told me he was bad but I knew he was sad.. 
G7                                       C 
That's why I fell for..the leader of the pack.

One day my dad said, 'Find someone new.(new,new.) 
                             Bb      G 
I had to tell my Jimmy we're through. 

(Whatcha mean when he said that you better go  

find somebody new?) 
F                                Em 
He stood there and asked me why? But all I could do was cry. 
G7                                  C 
I'm sorry I hurt you..leader of the pack.

He sort of smiled and kissed me good-bye. 

The tears were beginning to show. 

As he drove away on that rainy night, I begged him to  

go slow. 

But whether he heard, I'll never know 

(Look out!Look out!Look out!Look out!) 

#5. 
C                 
I felt so helpless what could I do? 
                                     Bb     G 
Remembering all the things we'd been through. 
F 
At school they all stop and stare.. 
Em 
I can't hide the tears but I don't care. 
G7                                   C 
I'll never forget him..leader of the pack. 

    Am                  C 
The leader of the pack, now he's gone.(Last line x4.)
