[D] [F] [G] [D]
Once upon a time there was a g[F]irl
around sm[G]iles and silver sh[D]oes
She thought she was in this dreadful t[F]ime
and didn't kn[G]ow what to d[D]o, she said
there ain't gonna be no g[F]uarantee
I k[G]now it from the he[D]art
but an outcast would get there in the e[F]nd
without the ne[G]ed to act and pre[D]tend, cause you know
[C]that I wanna hold you
[G]yeah unfold you
you looking g[D]ood girl
[C]and I don't need to see you
[G]but I wanna feel you
cause I n[D]eed you girl
And upon another time there was a b[F]oy
falling he[G]adfirst towards the fl[D]oor
and no, my friends, it wasn't captain M[F]organ this time
but the c[G]ircus inside that broken d[D]oor, he thought
This happy city is soon fa[F]lling apart
I k[G]now it from the h[D]eart
Be quiet and drive me far a[F]way
because it a[G]in't the place to s[D]tay, yeah you know
[C]that I wanna hold you
[G]yeah unfold you
you looking g[D]ood girl
[C]and I don't need to see you
[G]but I wanna feel you
cause I n[D]eed you girl
B..But t[G]..to my knees I pr[D]ay
that yo[G]u'll be there for m[D]e
B..But t[G]..to my knees I p[A]ray for you
but it won't be the t[D]ime
[F] [G] [D]
[D] [F] [G] [D]
hold up
Is that a feeling a c[F]hange
or just an[G]other soaked in whiskey, coke and b[D]eer
Keep your head up high you shouldn't have no f[F]ear
but the t[G]ime keeps whispering in my e[D]ar
I want my mother to s[F]ee me walking down that aile
please w[G]ait for me I'll be there in a w[D]hile
and everything will work out just f[F]ine you'll see
but until then,[G] where's my bottle of J&[D]amp;B, yeah you know
[C]that I wanna hold you
[G]yeah unfold you
you looking g[D]ood girl
[C]and I don't need to see you
[G]but I wanna feel you
cause I n[D]eed you girl
B..But t[G]..to my knees I pr[D]ay
that yo[G]u'll be there for m[D]e
B..But t[G]..to my knees I p[A]ray for you
but it won't be the t[D]ime
