I was scared of dentists and the dark

To the dark side, I wanna be your left hand man
 Am    G            C
I love you when you're singing that song, and I got a lump

In my throat, 'cause you're gonna sing the words wrong

Verse 2:
Am         G          C
There's this movie that I think you'll like
   Am       G        C
This guy decides to quit his job and heads to New York City
   Am    G      C
This cowboy's running from himself
  Am        G       C
And she's been living on the highest shelf

Ooh, ooh, ooh
Am  G       C
Ooh, ooh, and they come unstuck

 Am    G            C

Bridge:
Am             G
I just wanna, I just wanna know
C                F
If you're gonna, if you're gonna stay
Am             G
I just gotta, I just gotta know
C                F
I can't have it, I can't have it any other way

Pre-chorus: (strum once and hold)
 Am     G        C
I swear she's destined for the screen
Am        G         C
Closest thing to Michelle Pfeiffer that you've ever seen, oh
