    VERSE 1:
    A
  • You know, sometimes, I don't know why
    B/A Amaj7 B/A
    But this whole town just seems so hopeless
  • A B/A
    I ain't really sure but it seems I remember the good times
    Amaj7 B/A
  • Were just a little bit more in focus
    A B/A
    But when she puts her arms around me
  • Amaj7 B/A
    I can somehow rise above it
    A B/A
  • Yeah man when I got that little girl standing right by my side
    Amaj7 B/A
    You know I can tell the whole wide world to shove it
  •  
    CHORUS:
    E A E A
  • Hey here comes my girl Here comes my girl
    F#m B (normal B chord)
    Yeah and she looks so right She is all I need tonight
  •  
    VERSE 2:Every now and then I get down to the end of a day
    I'll just have to stop, ask myself, "What've I done?"
  • It just seems so useless to have to work so hard
    And nothin' ever really seem to come from it
    And then she looks me in the eye, says, "We gonna last forever,"
  • And man, you know I can't begin to doubt it
    No, because this feels so good and so free and so right
    I know we ain't never goin' change our minds about it
  •  
    CHORUS and then BREAK (see bottom)
     
  • VERSE 3:Yeah every time it seems there ain't nothin' left no more
    I find myself havin' to reach out and grab hold of somethin'
    Yeah, I just catch myself wanderin', waitin', worryin'
  • About some silly little things that don't add up to nothin'
    And then she looks me in the eye, says, "We gonna last forever,"
    And man, you know I can't begin to doubt it
  • No, because this feels so good and so free and so right
    I know we ain't never goin' change our minds about it
     
  • CHORUS then END
    (the ending is just the first and last measures of the VERSE: A to B/A)
     
  • BREAK: This break repeats three times, and the fourth time just
    continues the same vamp on the E and A strings, to VERSE 3.
