_ _ [Cm] _ _ [F] I was in love with you [Eb] before I knew it [Bb] meant more than just wanting to be with you
[F] I used to look for _ other [G] girls that looked like you
[Eb] [F] But the laws of nature [Eb] said forget a [Bb] son, Lisa, that's what somebody told me
[F] I worried about it a [G] little bit, but that's [C] all
[F] _
_ _ _ [Eb] _ _ _ _ [F] _
_ _ [Eb] _ _ _ [F] I dreamt that [Dm] you were Jonah [Bb] Park and I was Don Quixote
_ [F] And everywhere [G] we went the world was [Cm] tinfoil
[F] But I gave up demon [Eb] and became a [Bb] priest and put it right out of my system
[F] I worried [G] about it a little bit, but that's all _
[F] _ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _ _ [F] _
_ _ _ [Eb] _ _ [Dm] Now you used to play [C] the guitar, [Dm] we [Gm] worked in the country _ band
[G] I hung [Dm] out [C] down on the riverbank gone [Gm] some day
_ _ Your brother was [F] my closest [Eb] friend, he drove a [Dm] pickup truck _
_ [Bbm] He used [F] to bring me home sometimes from [C] high school _ _ _
[Gm] _ _ _ _ _ _ [F] Now I was [Eb] fifteen, oh the very first time [Bb] love broke completely inside me
[F] We were young [G] and we were learning about it [C] together
[F] And we had enough of [Eb] what we thought we'd [Bb] need of those well-known secret fables
[F] We worried [G] about it a little bit, but that's all _
[F] _ _ _ [Cm] _ _ _ _ [F] _
_ _ [Cm] _ _ _ [F] I regret my [Eb] life, I won't be long enough [Bb] to make love to all the women that I'd like to
[F] Or least of all [G] to live with the ones I've [C] loved
[F] And I've never [Eb] regretted a love affair [Bb] except one and that's all over
[F] I worried about [G] it a little bit, but that's [C] all _
[F] _ _ _ [Eb] _ _ _ _ [F] _
_ _ [Eb] _ _ _ [F] Now I heard you _ [Eb] lived away up [Bb] north, your kids are fighting plenty
[F] And I haven't seen [G] your brother since away last [C] Easter
[F] And of every other [Eb] girl in the whole wide world's [Bb] just a little bit more like you
[F] I worried about [G] it a little bit, but that's all
_ [F] _
