Sweetest Girl Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Em]She gets [C]her [Em]moves[G] right[D]
from [C]the front page and begs
me, [Em]ooh I've got the sweetest girl.
She is the pro[G]duct of uncertainty.
The treas[D]ure I sought,
a wonder grinning and gold,
[C]so [Em]much for the soft words she
[G]never told: that [D]I would
have [C]to [Em]wait[G] so many
[D]ste[C]ps behind.

[Verse 2]
Forgive me, I don't [Em]mean
to trouble [G]you,[D]
I [C]will move the parade [Em]an inch
behind [G]the starting
line. Forgive [D]me I don't mean [C]to trouble you but
[Em]I fe[D]el s[G]o mi[D]serabl[C]e.[Em]

[Verse 3]
Now she likes [G]to touch only when
[D]I'm [C]sle[Em]eping,
it keeps me dreaming of a sweeter girl.
[G]One with a gen[D]eralized impur[C]ity.
She's [Em]abruptly [G]the [D]queen,
suddenly fit for the crown,
probably the [C]reason she
don't [Em]need me now.
But [G]I prefer things[D] much more sp[C]iritual,
so [Em]I'll stay a step behind.

[Verse 4]
[G]Forgive me, I don't mean [D]to [C]trouble you,
[Em]I will mov[G]e th[D]e parade an inch
[C]behind the starting
[Em]line. Forgive me I don't mean to
[G]trouble you but I feel so miserable.

[Verse 5]
She [D]gets [C]bor[D]ed. If there
were a photographic record
you [Bm]could watch her as she pulls
the [Am]rope to [Em]move back
[Am]the [D]floor [C]and [D]let the world
fly [B]out from [Em]under me.
I'll act my age, but if
there's [C]any reason,
then [Em]I rea[G]son it's a[D][C]
reasonably [Em]good time to stage
my routine routine: melo
[G]dramatic love affair.

[Verse 6]
Forgive [D]me, I don't
[C]mean to [Em]trouble you,[G]
I [D]will [C]move the parade [Em]an inch
behind the starting
line. Forgive [G]me [D]I don't mean [C]to[Em][D][G][D]
[C]trouble you but[Em] I feel[D] so [G]miserabl[D]e.

[Verse 7]
[C]We're [Em]all [D]mise[G]rable[G]
[D]
