BmLooking in the wrong direction
F#mTo get what I missing
BmI had a vision of perfection
F#mWe all know how it goes you can't be greedy when it comes tBmo love
F#mGotta take the good with the bad she's the best you ever had
BmThere's no question if she's good enough
EYou really get me started
DYou know you have the softest Etouch
DI want you all the time
Chorus
DShe's just an ordinary Egirl
AShe's all I ever wanted

DShe's just an ordinarEy girl
AI thought I'd never find her
DShe was a diamond Ein disguiseA  
Verse
And wonder if there's such a woman for a nice romantic man
A hopeless romantic on the verge of something great
What does it take to make a friendship last with so much give and take
She's got to know that I'm in love with her and everything she is
It's like... be somewhere the warming of her kiss
... shot an arrow through her heart
I got someone who understands my passion right from the start.
Pre Chorus
You really get me started
You know you have the softest touch
I want you all the time
Chorus
She's just an ordinary girl
She's all I ever wanted
I saw forever in her eyes
She's just an ordinary girl
I thought I'd never find her
She was a diamond in disguise
