Life in the city's expensive today
DGEbDA
I know cuz that's where my girl went when my girl went away
GADD/C#Bb
She calls me up now just to calm me down, to calm me down
GD
But it's only sound, oh
DGEbD
Boys will come visit there's no room for doubt
DGEbDA
I try to stay calm but sometimes I just can't help but shout
GADD/C#Bb
She runs me down and then she runs to him she says, Aw Tim
G
She says Aw Tim
A/// A / / /
AGD
How can they see more than me in her eyes
EmCA
I realize that she's the prize and I'm the fool
AGD
How can they think I would sink out of sight
EmEm/GA
Like a bright summer moon,
Bright summer moon
