Am Em
I was perched outside in the pouring rain trying
Em
to make myself a sail
G Dm
Then I’ll float to you my darlin’ with the evening on my tail
Am
Although not the most honest means of travel
Em
It gets me there nonetheless
G Dm
I’m a heartless man at worst, babe and a helpless one at best
Chorus:
Am Em
Darling I’ll bathe your skin I’ll even wash your clothes
G Dm
Just give me some candy, before I go
Am Em
Oh, darling I’ll kiss your eyes and lay you down on your rug
G Dm
Just give me some candy after my hea
Am Em
Oh I’m often false explaining but to her
Em
it plays out all the same
G Dm
And although I’m left defeated it get’s held against my name
Am
I know you got plenty to offer baby
Em
but I guess I’ve taken quite enough
G Dm
Well I’m some stain there on your bedsheet you’re my diamond
Dm
in the rough
Chorus:
Am Em
Darling I’ll bathe your skin I’ll even wash your clothes
G Dm
Just give me some candy, before I go
Am Em
Oh, darling I’ll kiss your eyes and lay you down on your rug
G Dm
Just give me some candy after my heart
G Dm
I know that the writings on the wall
Chorus:
Am Em
Darling I’ll bathe your skin I’ll even wash your clothes
G Dm
Just give me some candy, before I go
Am Em
Oh, darling I’ll kiss your eyes and lay you down on your rug
G Dm
Just give me some candy after my heart
