[Verse 1]
A
I met two girls in Boulder, we were standing in the cold
D
I said, “There’s only room for one of you to live inside my home.” But
Bm A
this, this is not my home
A
The first one took my mind away, the second took my name, Oh yeah,
D
she writes me lovers every day but I need her all the same I need her
Bm A
all the same
[Chorus 1]
A
But you’re my leech
D
I hope you never leave me
Bm D Bm A
You could live inside my heart, killing people just to eat, you’re mine
A
And if you ever grow old,
D Bm
will hold you in my hands and tell you just how beautiful you are
[Verse 2]
A
When all the old folks went to bed, the gardener was spent And the
D Bm
children playing quietly, I lost my only friend And you held my head
A
The wind it whipped the trees around, it was snowing in the yard So
D
you ripped a piece right off your shirt and tied it round my arm And
Bm
said, “I’ll keep you warm.”
[Chorus 2]
A
But you’re my leech
D
I hope you never leave me
Bm D Bm A
You could live inside my heart, killing people just to eat, you’re mine
A
And if you ever grow old,
D Bm
will hold you in my hands and tell you just how beautiful you are
[Chorus 3]
A
But you’re my leech
D
I hope you never leave me
Bm D Bm A
You could live inside my heart, killing people just to eat, you’re mine
A
And if you ever grow old,
D Bm
will hold you in my hands and tell you just how beautiful you are
