C G A Am F
C G
Well I met you at the corner of my hope and my regret,
A Am
wasn't looking for an angel,
F
wasn't looking for you yet.
C
The night I heard my self sing,
G
the night I found a meaning,
Am F
near the white walls that were calling me.
G F C F C
I tried to write a song for you but it just went and left me blue.
G
Beneath the ground, the sun and stars,
F C
I lay with the princess of hearts.
[Chorus]
F G C
So let me show you my eye sight,
F G C
we'll be the bell of the southern wild,
F G
come show me why at first sight,
Am F
love moves quickly.
G
Hello nice to meet you, I was wondering if I could walk you home!
C F C Am C F C Am G
C
I see rivers run the evergreen,
G
I see dreams lost to the sand,
Am
I see crying for our families,
F
as their lives slip through our hands.
C
All my life has been leeching,
G
why give it all to you?
Am
Yeah I think I need a teaching,
F
cause they say that I'm untrue.
G
The best will pass and set you free,
F C
the love and all that you should be.
G
And no I'm not the preacher's son,
F
I'd love to be your only one.
C F C
[Chorus]
F G C
So let me show you my eye sight,
F G C
we'll be the bell of the southern wild,
F G
come show me why at first sight,
Am F
love moves quickly.
C
Hello nice to meet you,
G
I was wondering if I could walk you.
Am C F Am F Dm Am C F Am F
Dm
But oh na, na,
F
it ain't as easy as I make it sound.
Dm
Love it sucks,
F
it knocks you up and it knocks you down,
Dm Am F G Dm
nothing lost, ever since I found.
F
G C
So let me show you my eye sight,
F G C
we'll be the bell of the southern wild,
F G
come show me why at first sight,
Am F
love moves quickly.
F G C
Cause I spend hours remembering
F
and writing letters that I don't send.
F G C Am
But this love is not just in my head,
F G C
and I know, I've got a chance.
