Intro: (C G C G F G C)
C G C G
I stumbled through visions, revealed my condition
F G C
As thoroughly taken with you
C G C G
Your blue eyes shot through me, I changed irrevocably
F G C
The days of tomcatting were through
C G C G
15 years old well, what did I know?
F G C
I've never been one for a fight
C G C G
I needed you then and every day since
F G C
like a flower is needing sunlight
F C
I guess that I gave it up then
F C G
This self that alludes weaker men
F C
And what was my young heart to do?
Am G F
A girlfriend as pretty as you
C G C G
There in my early twenties, I spent most of it running
F G C
But I never once missed my home
C G C G
You were right there beside me, no idea who I would be
F G C
And I never once felt alone
C G C G
Then somewhere all this bitterness got tougher to dismiss
F G C
And I started thinking a lot
C G C G
There has got to be more to life, then simply man and wife
F G C
At least back then that's what I thought
F C
I guess that you gave it up then
F C G
Yourself, for the sake of this man
F C
And how could your young heart agree?
Am G F
A boyfriend as angry as me
F C F C F
I was gonna be something that I saw on TV
F C Am G F
You were more like a warm spring that weathered the winter of me
Am G F
Ahh, You weathered the winter of me
C G C G
I'm not that much older, there's so much that I still don't know
F G C
And nothing to blame but this love
C G C G
I feel no more a man then I did at that high school dance
F G C
But time doesn't wait for no one
C G C G
As for who we became, I still play in this band
F G C
You are a teacher at school
C G C G
And if this is what living is, I feel like an idiot
F G C
For blaming my love like a fool
F C
I guess that we gave it up then
F C G
The truth is there are no regrets girl
F C G
What was my young heart to do?
Am G F
A girlfriend as pretty as you
Am G F
A girlfriend as pretty as you
Am G
A girlfriend as pretty as...
F
......as pretty as you
