AmHe's sleeping in his shoes and dreaming of the worst
FLiving dirty lies, believing in reverse
AmHe'd break into the church to burglarize the father
FGetting older by the second if seconds even bother
AmOh but the CGirl
She Fcomes Emaround he was Dmlost where she Gfound him the C7girl
Though she Fmight get Emto him he Dmmight never Gget to the Fgirl
He hide behind the look that's written in the eye
he's lower than the rain cause its falling from the sky
like a man without a mother a choice without a chance
hes digging up the dead expecting them to dance
oh but the girl
she comes around he was lost where she found him the girl
though she might get to him he might never get to the girl
During the verse
C, D, E,  Ais the bass line over Am  
F, C, D,  Fis the bass line over F  
C, G, A,  Cis the bass line over C

Living dirty lies, believing in reverse

He'd break into the church to burglarize the father

Getting older by the second if seconds even bother

She comes around he was lost where she found him the girl

Though she might get to him he might never get to the girl

He hide behind the look that's written in the eye

he's lower than the rain cause its falling from the sky

like a man without a mother a choice without a chance

hes digging up the dead expecting them to dance

oh but the girl

she comes around he was lost where she found him the girl

though she might get to him he might never get to the girl
