  I was scared of pretty girls
      F#
and starting conversations,
D#m        C#       
  Oh all my friends
             F#
are turning green,
D#m                   C#

  I love you when you're
              F#
singing that song
                       D#m

  'cause you're gonna
          F#
sing the words wrong

         F#
job and heads to New York City,
     D#m       C#       
  this cowboy's running
         F#
from himself.
    D#m                
  And she's been living
  C#              F#
