    Ab
[Verse]
EAbmma I would never ask for something I could never have
But I've oCmnly heard the stories of lBbove and gods and wEbars
I've sAbeen as much as corner girls, plstic lords and broken chairs
But alCmways lived a rich boy untiBbl you made me poor
[Bridge]
EbHm - Bbm - AbmBb  
[Verse]
EAbmma it's been only days but I caught a glimpse of your velvet gaze
I oCmnly knew the roughed but nBbow my eyes are soft
So dAbon't leave me a humbled man, feel the harsh, familiar lands
UnCmder feet and under a siBbckness
[Bridge]
EbI - i Bb- iAb  Bb  
[Chorus]
There's tCmimes to fiBbght and there's tAbimes to tBbrust
And there's hCmope to fBbind when there's Abone holdBb  
[Bridge]

[Verse]
EAbmma all I'd ever ask was to be at your command
FCmold me in your pocket and you can rBbub away the rest
Cause eveAbrything I was to now was only leading to this point
I nCmever had the knowledge but I alBbways had a thirst
