ah ooh ooh ooh
Am G C/ (hold single strum)

I love you when you're singing that song and I got a lump in my
throat cuz you're gonna sing the words wrong

There's this movie that I think you'll like

This cowboy's running from him-self
and she's been living on the highest shelf

Closest thing to Michelle Pfeiffer that you've ever seen, oh

Am G C/
throat cuz you're gonna sing the words wrong
