So ex[D]cited

[Asus4]Just as long a[A]s s[D]he promised[Dsus4]
to [D]keep that [A]red [G]dress [Bm]on
How was I [D]to know she was
[F#m]only fooling round?

Just try[A]ing to keep my hands [G]clean

[Verse 3]
On the radio [Dsus4]they played that
[D]song [A]called [D]Lay[G]la
And she [D]turned it up as she came
[Dsus4]across th[D]e room [A]to me[G]
And I [D]held her close like [Dsus4]she was
[D]made [Asus4]of angel [D]glass
Nev[A]er [D]realised that what [Dsus4]we had

How was I [D]to know she was
[F#m]only fooling around?

Cause [D]I was o[A]nly 1[G]7
Just try[A]ing to keep my hands [G]clean
[D]Didn't know [A]what love [G]could mean
And I was living [D]life
I was [A]only trying to be good

Just liv[A]ing like a boy [G]should
And I was living life
[D]
