[Verse 1]
Bb                       Dm
Come to think of it she said
                           Cm7
Would you help me lace 'em up instead?
    Ebm
The weed I had is workin'
 
 
[Verse 2]
Bb                        Dm
From the shoreline in the snow
                       Cm7
I can tell you want me out there so
Ebm
Riding till it's hurting
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
Bb            Eb
You've set me up now
                 Ebmaj7
Watch her as she pirouettes
                 F
Watch her figure 8
           Bb
With that style
                Eb
All good things of it
                Cm
Almost likely gonna go
                Ebm
Watch her skate away
 
 
[Chrous]
Bb
Why am I your baby?
                             Eb
As though you wanna play me away like that
F
Said you're never cold in the dark side of the road
           Bb            Ebm
It's your faith there in fact
Bb
Would you wanna know
                                  Eb
If I'd say you'll never go in at full impact?
F
Always on a break as your calming a mistake
           Bb          Eb
With your slow pacing back
 
 
[Verse 3]
Bb                      Dm
Come to think of it he said
                          Cm
You preferred if I would just pretend
    Ebm
To hold you there as baby
 
 
[Verse 4]
Bb                       Dm
From the photos of you though
                      Cm
I've a longing to go back there so
Ebm
Right until it's fading
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
Bb            Eb
You've set me up now
                 Ebmaj7
Watch her as she pirouettes
                 F
Watch her figure 8
           Bb
With that style
                Eb
All good things of it
                Cm
Almost likely gonna go
                Ebm
Watch her skate away
