[Verse 1]
GShe keeps it simple
And I am thankful for her kind of Clovin'
'Cause it's Gsimple
GNo longer do we wonder if we're together
We're way Cpast that
And I've already Gasked her
So in DJanuary we're gettin' Cmarried
[Interlude]
G
[Verse 2]
GShe's talkin' to me with her voice
Down so low I barely Chear her
GBut I know what she's sayin'
GI understand because my Cheart and hers are the Gsame
And in DJanuary we're gettin' Cmarried
[Interlude]
G
[Verse 3]
GAnd I was sick with heartache
And she was sick like Audrey CHepburn when I Gmet her
GBut we would both surrender
True love is not the kind of Cthing you should Gturn down
Don't Amever turn it Cdown
[Interlude]
G
[Verse 4]
GI hope that I don't sound too insane when I say
There is Cdarkness all aGround us
GI don't feel weak but I do need sometimes for her to proCtect me
And reconGnect me to the Cbeauty that I'm Gmissin'
And in DJanuary we're gettin' Cmarried
[Verse 5]
GNo longer does it matter what circumstances we were Cborn in
GShe knows which birds are singin'
And the names of the trees where they're perCformin' in the Gmornin'
And in DJanuary we're gettin' Cmarried
Come AmJanuary let's get Cmarried
[Outro]
G
