Guitar chords with lyrics
Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)
Verse 1:
C F D
And these months went by so sweet
G F
I met her down by the stream and she was pure
C F
Like honeycomb on the fire, dew in the north
F
And she tugged on my sleeves asking "Where you going?"
C
"I've been baking you cookies you can leave in the morning"
F C
I, I want you around
F
But see I’m drawn to your flames like a moth to the fold
C F
In these old pair of jeans unwashed in your wardrobe
F
I'm caught at the seams of who I’ll become
F C Dm
Can be a man to the sea and the needs to your love
Chorus:
F C
And if I could be your Captain Planet would you be my girl?
C
And together we could save the world
Dm
Here on out
F C
I will do my best to be someone you deserve
C
We can say to other people
Dm
Look I'm better off with her
F C
And if I could be your Captain Planet would you be my girl?
C
And together we could save the world
Dm
Here on out
F C
I will do my best to be someone you deserve
C
We can say to other people
F
Look I'm better off with her
C
I'm better off with her
F
I'm better off with her
F
And I'm better off with her
C F F F F F F C
Don’t let me down
Verse 2:
F D
And these months went by so sweet
C F
We jumped overboard, company wherever I go
Dm C
She said “Let’s leave in the morning, been knitting you a jumper for when it gets colder”
F Dm
She puts my head in her hands, whenever I'm feeling low
F
Or if I feel like I’ve kept, too much from words that I chose
Dm F
And there’s rust on my frame, or was I sitting to close?
C Dm
Is it salt in my palms or have I been here before?
Chorus:
F C
And if I could be your Captain Planet would you be my girl?
C
And together we could save the world
Dm
Here on out
F
I will do my best to be someone you deserve
C
We can say to other people
F
Look I'm better off with her
F C
And if I could be your Captain Planet would you be my girl?
C
And together we could save the world
F
Here on out
Dm F
I will do my best to be someone you deserve
C
We can say to other people
F
Look I'm better off with her
F
I'm better off with her
C
And I'm better off with her
F
I'm better off with her
C F
And I'm better off with her
Verse 3:
Gm C
But I'm no good for your daughter
F
‘til I've learned to breathe underwater
F C
But she’s been coaxing me under, telling me how
C
She'll be holding my hands if I make it around
F C
And I'm no good for your daughter
F
‘til I've learned to breathe underwater
Fm C
But she’s been coaxing me under telling me how

She'll be holding my hands if make it around
