BE MY GIRL

Standard Tuning
Capo 1
In the arms of gentle beauty
In the throes of auburn hair
I could babble on for hours
And sleep right through your stare
On that corner off of Tharpe Street Where I used to run and hide
I had visions in our passion That compel me to decide
CHORUS
To love you forever
To call you my own
To make you my lover
To make you my home
To build our own family To take on the world Youâd make me so happy If you would be my girl
Thereâs a path in Cinque Terra
Lovers carve their hearts in stone
Where I gazed out over heaven
And thought of you alone
When the sun fell through the water
I stood and wrung my hands
Crying âLord show me compassion
And let me be the manâ
Iâm crazy about you, baby
I keep dreaming of our future
I keep whispering your name
I know my precious treasures
You hold all of them
Iâve been counting every heartbeat
Iâve been burning in my skin
Every second is a lifetime
So, baby take my hand
