• Difficulty: Beginner

Key: G

♫ Intro:

D


♫ Verse 1:
D              C     G    D
I never thought I'd see you looking at me this way
    C          G
Almost vulgar and out of place
        C       G
Like seeing the moon in the day
     Em          G
I find it hard not to look away
     C           Em
Hard to believe it's the same face
         C
I saw twisted in anger
        G        D
I thought you’d hate me forever

♫ Verse 2:
D        G
Now I feel your hand under the table,
G
At the fancy restaurant
     Em
Gripping on my inner thigh
Em
Like if you don’t I’m gonna run
      C
But I’m not going anywhere
C
Least not anywhere you’re not
    D
Got me wrapped around your finger
D
Tied in a double knot


♫ Pre-Chorus:
       G
Just like our legs all double knotted
G
In the morning at the Ritz
 Em
$700 dollar room still drinking coffee from the Keurig
   C
We're soaking up the luxuries on someone else's dime
D
Living the dream before we fully pass our prime


♫ Chorus:
     C
And when we do
     Em            D
I'll have time to write the book on you
A             C
Time to write the book on you
G             D
Time to write the book on you


♫ Verse 3:
    G
Sitting on the kitchen counter
G
Counting bug bites on your thighs
   Em
Just another southern summer
Em
Sweating bullets in the highs
   C
Watermelon dripping down your chin
C
Laughing 'til you cry
     D
Sweetest tears I ever tasted
D
Kissing salt out of your eyes
     G
I've been circumventing your pet peeves
       Em
Bending over backwards every time that you say please
       C
I just wanna make you happy
            D
Will you let me spend a lifetime trying?


♫ Chorus:
    C
And if you do
     Em            D
I'll have time to write the book on you
A             C
Time to write the book on you
G             D
Time to write the book on you
             A
Finally time to write the book on you


♫ Verse 4:
Em             D
I still believe in God sometimes
             Cmaj7
It always takes me by surprise
            A
To catch myself in the middle of praying
Em
But I thank God for you
   D
When I don't know what else to do
   C                  A
Don't know where the words go but I still say ‘em


♫ Bridge:
Em          D
If it's not God, it's Fate
            C
If it's not Fate, it’s Chance
              G
If it's my chance I'm gonna take it
G
Cause who gets the chance
     C     G
Like the one that I have?
  Em       G
To catch the most wanted man in West Tennessee


♫ Outro:
G            D
If you let me write the book
     C        G
Open the heart and take a look
G
I promise anything you give me
G
Is something I will keep
             D
We can burn it when it’s done
     C       G
Soot and cinder in the sun
    Am     G      N.C.
Nothing left for anyone to read and weep
