ASing me a song
That's never been C#msung
I wanna F#mhold you babe
While the nights still C#myoung
Let's start a Afire

Let's stare off in the F#mdistance
Till we both go C#minsane
Search through the Astars
To get through the C#mnight

Good morning Asunlight
Let me down C#mslow
Don't ask me what I F#mwant
I can tell you wanna C#mgo
