[Intro] 
   C

[Verse 1]
  Am           E7       F               C
If you let me hold you I think you'd understand
 Am            E7            F           G
My hearts burning for you in a way no others can
  C                C7
And I may not be perfect 
 F                       Fm
But if you'll call me your man
   C                  G            C
I promise that I'll do the best I can

[Verse 2]
 Am               E7
When you say my name 
     F                     C
It feels like time is standing still
 Am                 E7
I'd never want to speed it up 
  F                G
I haven't got the will
                C       
Though he may get tickets
             C7
When he's too quick
          F                  Fm
It's my heart that pays the bill
 C                   G             C
I think I'll just let time stand still

[Chorus]
 Dm                               G7
I thought my heart it was well protected
   Dm                         G7
Behind my ribs right where I had left it 
      Dm7                   C  C/B   Am  G
But, I should've known that 12 or so bones 
             Dm7               G7
Wouldn't be enough to hide my love


*Whistle*
Am E7 F C Am E7 F G C C7 F Fm C G C

[Chorus]
 Dm                               G7
I thought my heart it was well protected
   Dm                         G7
Behind my ribs right where I had left it 
      Dm7                   C  C/B   Am  G
But, I should've known that 12 or so bones 
             Dm7               G7
Wouldn't be enough to hide my love

      C                       C7
Oh, well I know that I'm not perfect 
      F                    Fm
But if you'll call me your man
  C                  G           C
I promise that I'll do the best I can
