Capo 1st Fret
Intro:
(You have to alternate between the A5 and A a couple of times before the E.
A5  A  E
AI'm asked to walk her to her car at night
AThat's my job when it's dark outside
But what she really waDnts is to be by my sAide
AI'm her blanket when it's five degrees
AIt's so cold, we can see when we breathe
What she really wDants is to be next to Ame
I'll be her sheElter while we wDait
For our cEab standing in the rDain
And it neAver seems to boEther me...
(Chorus)
AI'm not giving in, you're not calling it qF#muits
We have it too good nDow
And Awe, oh we lEove it how
AI've been looking for, you've been waiting for
F#mSomebody just like this
And we hDave it now
And Ewe make it eDasy somehow
(Repeat Intro 1x)
Oh sAhe's my music when I'm trying to sleep
AWhen I forget the words, she knows everything
What I reDally want is to hear her sAing
AShe's my feet when I cannot dance
AShe just loves it, and she doesn't laugh
And what I reDally love, she says I'm not so bAad
F#mYou're the one who keeps the two of us from going oDverboard
I can sAee, you're too good for Eme
F#mAnd we're the ones who will change love to wDhat it used to be
So siAmple (so simple)
So swEeet (so sweet)
I don't wanna F#mlet yEou Dsus2go
ASomething I should kDnow
I don't wanna F#mlet yEou Dsus2go, anymore
(Chorus)

A5 A E

I'm asked to walk her to her car at night

That's my job when it's dark outside

But what she really wants is to be by my side

I'm her blanket when it's five degrees

It's so cold, we can see when we breathe

I'll be her shelter while we wait

E D

For our cab standing in the rain

A E

And it never seems to bother me...

I'm not giving in, you're not calling it quits

We have it too good now

Somebody just like this

And we have it now

Oh she's my music when I'm trying to sleep

When I forget the words, she knows everything

You're the one who keeps the two of us from going overboard

So simple (so simple)

So sweet (so sweet)
