Am
I wanted her
Am
I wanted her

( Am  D )
But she doesn't like the life that I lead,
She doesn't like the life that I lead
Doesn't like sand stuck on her feet.
Or sitting around smoking weed,
I must seem more like a friend in need.

         C                      D
And I boast that it is meant to be,
               F G F
but in all honesty,
 G              D        Em F
I don't have a hope in hell,
 F              G        F  G  D  Em F
I'm happy just to watch her move.
                     F G F
but in all honesty,
 G              D        Em F
I don't have a hope in hell,
 F              G        F  G  D  Em F
I'm happy just to watch her move.

( Am  D )

And she doesn't like the
friends that I make, doesn't
make friends for friendship's sake.
she just gets bored sitting by the lake,
her soul won't surface and her
heart won't ache.

         C                      D
And I boast that it is meant to be,
               F G F
but in all honesty,
 G              D        Em F
I don't have a hope in hell,
 F              G        F  G  D  Em F
I'm happy just to watch her move.
               F G F
but in all honesty,
 G              D        Em F
I don't have a hope in hell,
 F              G        F  G  D  Em F
I'm happy just to watch her move.
