She [E]shone up bright like a kn[A]ife
Wearing [G]tennis shorts made of [A]stripes
Hand in [E]hand to the [A]grass 
and we got it [D]right
Got it [A]nice, nice, nice
Just a [E]glimpse of an ankle and [A]I
Re[G]act like it's 18[A]05
And I'd [E]swim to the poles just 
to [A]find the right satel[D]lite
It'll take [A]all of my strength to give [G]up

'Cause you all know I [A]tried
So forget about it, [G]girl
My head's like a [A]kite
When such a creature I sig[E]ht
To [A]town!
Where your [G]feet leave no prints 
on the [A]ground
Have I [E]left my home just to 
[A]whine in this micro[D]phone?[A]
It gets [E]worse every time that we [A]talk
Can't af[G]ford to be just one in a [A]flock
But that's your [E]lot
When you're [A]after such a well-made [D]lock
Who was [A]classically trained to give[G]up

And my friends know I [A]tried
So forget about it, [G]girl
Even I don't know [A]why
I can't just [G]stay the course
Keep my hands on the [A]wheel
Our detractors were [G]right
My head's like a [A]kite
'[C]Cause [C]all [C]my [C]thoughts 
[C]run [C]as[C]tray
[C]And [C]I'm [C]a [C]wal[C]king [C]cli[C]che
[C]When [C]such [C]a [C]crea[C]ture 
[C]I [C]sight

I can't just stay the course
Keep my hands on the [A]wheel
Our detractors were [G]right
