Am I was perched outside in the pouring rain Em Trying to make myself a sail G Then I'll float to you my darlin' D7 With the evening on my tail Am Although not the most honest means of travel Em It gets me there nonetheless G I'm a heartless man at worst, babe D7 And a helpless one at best
Am Darling I'll bathe your skin Em I'll even wash your clothes G D7 Just give me some candy, before I go Am Oh, darling I'll kiss your eyes Em And lay you down on your rug G Just give me some candy D7 After my heart
Etc.
Oh I'm often false explaining But to her it plays out all the same and although I'm left defeated It get's held against my name I know you got plenty to offer baby But I guess I've taken quite enough Well I'm some stain there on your bedsheet You're my diamond in the rough
Darling I'll bathe your skin I'll even wash your clothes Just give me some candy before I go Oh, darling I'll kiss your eyes And lay you down on your rug Just give me some candy After my heart
Instrumental: Am Em G D7 I know that there´re writings on the wall
But Darling I'll bathe your skin I'll even wash your clothes Just give me some candy After my heart
C G Oh I'll be there waiting for you C G I'll be there waiting for you C Em I'll be there waiting for you C G I'll be there waiting for you C Em I'll be there waiting for you C G Oh I'll be there waiting for you C Em I'll be there waiting for you
