[Verse 1]
AI met two girls in Boulder, we were standing in the cold 
I said, “There’s oDnly room for one of you to live inside my home.” But
Bmthis, this is not my homAe 
AThe first one took my mind away, the second took my name, Oh yeah, 
she Dwrites me lovers every day but I need her all the same I need her
Bmall the same A  
[Chorus 1]
But you’re Amy leech 
I hope you Dnever leave me 
You could Bmlive inside my heart, killing Dpeople just to eBmat, you’re mAine 
And if you Aever grow old, 
will Dhold you in my hands and tell Bmyou just how beautiful you are 
[Verse 2]
When Aall the old folks went to bed, the gardener was spent And the 
Dchildren playing quietly, I lost my only friend And Bmyou held my head 
The Awind it whipped the trees around, it was snowing in the yard So
you rDipped a piece right off your shirt and tied it round my arm And
said, “BmI’ll keep you warm.” 
[Chorus 2]
But you’re Amy leech 
I hope you Dnever leave me 
You could Bmlive inside my heart, killing Dpeople just to Bmeat, you’re Amine 
And if you Aever grow old, 
will Dhold you in my hands and tell Bmyou just how beautiful you are 
[Chorus 3]
But you’re Amy leech 
I hope you Dnever leave me 
You could Bmlive inside my heart, killing Dpeople just to Bmeat, you’re Amine 
And if you Aever grow old, 
will Dhold you in my hands and tell Bmyou just how beautiful you are

[Verse 1]

I met two girls in Boulder, we were standing in the cold

I said, “There’s only room for one of you to live inside my home.” But

Bm A

this, this is not my home

The first one took my mind away, the second took my name, Oh yeah,

she writes me lovers every day but I need her all the same I need her

Bm A

all the same

[Chorus 1]

But you’re my leech

I hope you never leave me

Bm D Bm A

You could live inside my heart, killing people just to eat, you’re mine

And if you ever grow old,

D Bm

will hold you in my hands and tell you just how beautiful you are

[Verse 2]

When all the old folks went to bed, the gardener was spent And the

D Bm

children playing quietly, I lost my only friend And you held my head

The wind it whipped the trees around, it was snowing in the yard So

you ripped a piece right off your shirt and tied it round my arm And

said, “I’ll keep you warm.”

[Chorus 2]

But you’re my leech

I hope you never leave me

Bm D Bm A

You could live inside my heart, killing people just to eat, you’re mine

And if you ever grow old,

D Bm

will hold you in my hands and tell you just how beautiful you are

[Chorus 3]

But you’re my leech

I hope you never leave me

Bm D Bm A

You could live inside my heart, killing people just to eat, you’re mine

And if you ever grow old,

D Bm

will hold you in my hands and tell you just how beautiful you are
