Verse 2: repeat Chorus 2 chord structure
I watch her as she runs, my mother jumps the gun
She puts her in her arms, that is just like my mom
Never lets go, never lets me grow old, I wanna pay her back
But love is nothing you can tax
My family's not rich by any means
But I feel we won the lottery, that day
The rock swallowed the girl, and I cried as cameras caught my eyes
My tears turned into butterflies, they fly away as caskets close
A new day comes you'll wake unfolding, smile when you feel the sunlight
You feel the sunlight, you feel the sunlight


Outro Chorus: Use Chorus 2 chord structure
Snails see the benefits, the beauty in every inch
So why, why, why, why, why, are you quick to kiss?
Baby, maybe I spoke too soon
I'll touch you once you make the first move
Snails see the benefits, the beauty in every inch, oh
Snails see the benefits, the beauty in every inch
