Verse 1:
Dm7
  It's funny in the rear view
       Gsus4
You're closer than you are

  It's learning how to balance

If I'm out on Friday night, it'll be me turnin' on them lights
       Dm7
When I come on home
           Gsus4
But I'll manage (I'll manage, I'll manage)

There'll be roses on the shelf

'Cause this house gon' love itself
