*************************************

Verse 1:
Emaj7        Fdim7
How could I ignore you?
F#m6        B7#5    Emaj7
Trust me I adore you
      Fdim7            F#m6      B7#5
We’re swimming through our dreams
Emaj7          Fdim7
Kiss me in the shower
F#m6         B7#5 Emaj7
For a couple hours
             Fdim7   F#m6  B7#5
Though we’re only sixteen
    Emaj7    Fdim7
And sit down beside me
F#m6          B7#5   Emaj7
Don’t call me daddy
     Fdim7                F#m6  B7#5
Cause that’s just fucking weird
Emaj7               Fdim7
Promise that you'll stay here
F#m6          B7#5    Emaj7
You and I can lay here
Fdim7            F#m6   B7#5
Until the end of time

Chorus:
Emaj7          Emaj7     D#maj7      Dmaj7
But girl, well don't you worry about me
         Amaj7  G#maj7 ~ Amaj7 Cmaj7        Cmaj7 C#maj7 Dmaj7
It ain’t new to me, feeling    this lonely (Darling)
Emaj7      Emaj7     D#maj7      Dmaj7
Girl, well don't you worry about me
              Emaj7       D#maj7      Dmaj7
But if you’re ever unhappy
     B13    B13   B7     B7
Then maybe, baby, I must let you go

Emaj7 D#maj7 Dmaj7 Amaj7     Emaj7 D#maj7 Dmaj7 Amaj7
                   Let you go


Verse 2:
Emaj7          Fdim7         F#m6           B7#5      Emaj7
Baby, now it’s best here, to lay me down and rest here
      Fdim7         F#m6 B7#5
Let’s dream of Corduroy
Emaj7             Fdim7          F#m6               B7#5    Emaj7
Work for what you love to do and I will watch right over you
          Fdim7       F#m6  B7#5
With your heart, I’ll never toy
    Emaj7            Fdim7
And you’re the other half of me
F#m6                B7#5         Emaj7
Drink and sleep and laugh with me
Fdim7        F#m6  B7#5
Save me from myself
    Emaj7         Fdim7
See I’m a fucking basket-case
         F#m6     B7#5         Emaj7
Until I'm able to see your face
    Fdim7           F#m6 B7#5
You saved me from myself


Chorus:
Emaj7          Emaj7     D#maj7      Dmaj7
But girl, well don't you worry about me
         Amaj7  G#maj7 ~ Amaj7 Cmaj7        Cmaj7 C#maj7 Dmaj7
It ain’t new to me, feeling    this lonely (Darling)
Emaj7      Emaj7     D#maj7      Dmaj7
Girl, well don't you worry about me
              Emaj7       D#maj7      Dmaj7
But if you’re ever unhappy
     B13    B13   B7     B7
Then maybe, baby, I must let you go

Emaj7 D#maj7 Dmaj7 Amaj7     Emaj7 D#maj7 Dmaj7 Amaj7
                   Let you go
