I spent a year on my feet, I was running where you'd walk
                        C  C*                         C  C*         Am   Am7   Am  Am7  
I keep my eyes on the pavement 'cause I still don't want to talk
             G*                                      G   Am   Am7   Am  Am7  
I spent my money for the sake of hoping that I wasn't done
             G*                                         G   Am   Am7   Am  Am7  
You spent a summer on your stomach so I guess I owe you one
                         C  C*                  C  C*        Am   Am7   Am  Am7

You've got your hair pulled back and you're leaving 'cause you don't care
                          C  C*                 C  C*           Am   Am7   Am  Am7  
You're always taking your time and you do it because you can

You're feeling lucky and you're happy 'cause you finally found a man
           G*                                                  G   Am   Am7   Am  Am7  
He's got a pocket full of money when all I can do is hold your hand
