Verse I:

       E                            B
I don't know how to make lots of money
       E                         B
I got debts that I'm trying to pay
        A                        E
I can't buy you nice things, like big diamond rings
     A                       B
But that don't mean much anyway
         E                             B
I can't give you the house you've been dreaming
      E                        B
If I could I would build it alone
         A                    E
I'd be out there all day, just hammering away
   A                   B
Make us a place of our own

I will write you a song
C#m               A             E            B
That's how you'll know that my love is still strong

        C#m                A           E           B             E

            E                      B
I don't know that I'd make a good soldier
          E                            B
I don't believe in being violent and cruel
           A                           E
I don't know how to fight, but I'll draw blood tonight
   A                         B
If somebody tries hurting you

C#m               A             E            B
That's how you'll know that my love is still strong
C#m       A          E       ( B )                    Bass:D------2-4--

Now that it's out on the table (it's out on the table)
             B                            A
Both of us knew all along (knew all along)
