E Adim7 A E
Go ahead and let your hands stay entwined,
ch /ch
Adim7 A E
I swear I could not possibly mind.
ch /ch
Adim7 A
And when she lets down her guard,
ch /ch
B7 F#m/B
Don't kiss her too hard.
She's sure to repay in kind.
ch /ch
E Adim7 A E
Don't let your courtesy last too long,
ch /ch
Adim7 A E
My love blooms when I know it's gone.
ch /ch
Adim7 A
So if I'm in the room,
ch /ch
B7 F#m/B
It should be fair to assume:
C#m F#m E
You can both act how you want.
A E/G# F#m E
And I won't cross the line you drew
A E/G# F#m E
Cause I'm not here to compete
B F#m
Oh and I don't know what she tells you,
A E
But she's still my girl to me.
ch /ch
E Adim7 A E
She's good with quick goodbyes
ch /ch
Adim7 A E
And whenever she rolls her eyes
ch /ch
Adim7 A
That's her admission of guilt
ch /ch
B7 F#m/B
on the temper she built,
C#m F#m E
And for me that's her most familiar side.
ch /ch
E Adim7 A E
I'm always watching my bridges burn,
ch /ch
Adim7 A E
But if she didn't leave then she can't return.
ch /ch
Adim7 A
And I don't know you too well,
ch /ch
B7 F#m/B
But it's not too hard to tell
C#m F#m E
I miss her but I'm not concerned.
A E/G# F#m E
And I'm glad to see that someone stayed
A E/G# F#m E
I don't want to see her grieve
B F#m
But it doesn't matter what you say,
A E
She is still my girl to me.
ch /ch
E Adim7 A E
Oh that's the way my sister might give a kiss
ch /ch
Adim7 A E
Oh, how I feel so passively missed.
ch /ch
Adim7 A
And she says in your ear,
ch /ch
B7 F#m/B
as if I wasn't here
C#m F#m E
the Quixote knows who he is
A E/G# F#m E
Oh, call me names if it comforts you
A E/G# F#m E
There are worst things I could be
B F#m
But it doesn't matter if it isn't true-
A E
She is still my girl to me
