INTRO:
(x7)
I run my fingers through her blackish blondish hair
Look into her brown blue eyes and touch her skin so dark and fair
Em7b5
Because I like how she encourages and scolds me
How even as her left hand pushes me away her right arm holds me
It s nice to know she s always waiting for me at the dead ends
Guess I need a little love from every little square of my sweet little
patchwork girlfriend
Of my sweet little patchwork girlfriend
(x7)
I can t tell if she would rather take or leave me
And I m not sure what I m saying but I m sure I want her to believe me
Em7b5
So I run my fingers through her blackish blondish brownish reddish grayish
(grayish?!) hair
And tell her I won t mess around with other girls unless they re her

It s nice to know she s always waiting for me at the dead ends
Guess I need a little love from every little square of my sweet little
patchwork girlfriend
Of my sweet little patchwork girlfriend
Though I m no more boy scout than boyfriend I could see tying the knot
Instead it s my hands that are tied because that d be against the law even in Utah
It s nice to know she s always waiting for me at the dead ends
Guess I need a little love from every little square of my sweet little
patchwork girlfriend
She s anywhere I could ever go ain t no false start or dead end
That could take me away from, couldn t bring me back to my sweet little
patchwork girlfriend
Or my big bitter patchwork girlfriend
Or my sweet little patchwork girlfriend
