[Verse]
Am D Am D Am D Am D
I wanted her, I wanted her
Am D Am D
But she doesn't like the life that I lead
Am D Am D
She doesn't like the life that I lead
Am D Am D
Doesn't like sand stuck on her feet
Am D Am D
Or sitting around smoking weed
Am D Am D
I must seem more like a friend in need
[Pre-Chorus]
D G
And I boast that it is meant to be but in all honesty
[Chorus]
F G F
G D C F
I don't have a hope in hell
F G F G D C F
I'm happy just to watch her move And in all honesty
F G F
G D C F
I don't have a hope in hell
F G F G D C F
I'm happy just to watch her move
