[D#m]
[B] [E]
[Em] You sit there in [F#] your [G#]
[B] heartache, waiting on [E] some beautiful boy dude to save you from [D] your old [B] ways.
You play forgiveness, [E] watch it now, here he comes.
He doesn't look a [F#] thing like [G#m] Jesus, [B] but he talks like a gentleman, [C#m] like you imagined
[E] when you [F#] were young.
[G#m]
[B] [E]
[Bm] Can we climb this [F#] mountain?
I don't [B]
know, I've [E] been there before.
[A] I know we can make [F#] it if we take [G#] it slow.
[B] Let's take it easy, [E] easy now.
[F#] The waves [B] got [C#m] hurricane, they started turning [E] when you [F#] were [B] young.
[E]
When you [F#] were [G#m] young.
[B] [E]
And sometimes you [F#] close your [G#m] eyes and see [B] the place where you [F#] used to [E] live when you [F#] were [E] young.

[C#m] [B] [G#] [F#]
They say the [C#m] devil's water, it ain't so sweet.
You [E] don't have to drink right now, [G#m]
but you can dip your feet [F#]
every once in a little while.
