C5 G5 We almost got it together A5 F5 And I'll be your favourite thing C5 G5 Oh stand by the river with hard-luck eyes A5 F5 And I'll just be open and sing C5 G5 And if I was telling you stories A5 F5 I was only trying to surprise C5 F5 I wish I was like the frog princess G5 C5 F5 C5 G5 And I'd never tell you lies C5 G5 And down by the soil of the hard life A5 F5 Oh they like to greet us with smiles C5 G5 They like to tell us their good hostess A5 F5 Has travelled a million miles C5 G5 But you'd like it written closer A5 F5 Yes, you'd like it written pure C5 F5 If I told you this, would you miss my kiss G5 C5 F5 C5 G5 Would you come right back for more A5 F5 Oh, I'd like to be, what I wanna be C5 G5 But you want to carry on A5 F5 But you need to take, what you have to take G5 C5 F5 C5 G5 But I'd still be here when you're gone C5 G5 And there's a light by your window A5 F5 And I'd like to capture you by there C5 G5 And I'd like to hold you for all to see A5 F5 But they don't really care C5 G5 And if I said you're no peccadillo A5 F5 Yes, I said you're a major thing C5 F5 Would you stand by me, at the corner dock G5 C5 F5 C5 G5 And say, "Yes, this girl is the swing!" A5 F5 Oh, I'd like to be, what I wanna be C5 G5 But you want to carry on A5 F5 But you need to take, what you have to take G5 C5 F5 C5 G5 But I'd still be here when you're gone A5 F5 And I'd like another cue C5 G5 That's why I strain to see A5 F5 And I'd like the best in you G5 C5 F5 C5 G5 Cause you write the best in me C5 G5 And everybody was swinging A5 F5 Oh swooning to the heart in me C5 G5 Oh they were sure that I'd be burning, yes A5 F5 So their tart swerve to here might be C5 G5 But if I said "you're gold, inside, yes?" A5 F5 And if you were true to me C5 F5 Would you hang around with that creepy smile G5 C5 F5 C5 G5 Crawl home back to me A5 F5 Oh, I'd like to be, what I wanna be C5 G5 But you want to carry on A5 F5 But you need to take, what you have to take G5 C5 F5 C5 G5 But I'd still be here when you're gone
