Capo 7
Standard Tuning
He occasionally hammers on the third fret of the high E string.
Not exactly the way he plays, but very close.
Intro: x2
Verse 1:
There s a girl who wants to run away
She wants to steal my heart
There s a girl who wants to run away
She wont get too far
We ve been dreaming of tomorrow
But it never comes around
We ve been dreaming of tomorrow
But we never make a sound
Pre-Chorus:
She sits beside me on the train
But I look the other way
I ve got a secret in my heart
Chorus:
Music is my mistress and she keeps the girls away
They always seem to come along but never seem to say
Music is my mistress and she whispers in my ear
I don t need nobody else to tell me what to
hear
Verse 2:
Someone s sleeping underneath my bed
I don t know her name
Someone s sleeping underneath my bed
I wonder who s to blame
I try so hard to make her understand
This cannot go on
I try so hard to make her understand
But she tells me I m wrong
She stands beside me in the rain
But I turn the other way
I ve got a secret in my heart
Chorus:
Music is my mistress and she keeps the girls away
They always seem to come along but never seem to say
Music is my mistress and she whispers in my ear
I don t need nobody else to tell me what to
hear
Chorus:
Music is my mistress and she keeps the girls away
They always seem to come along but never seem to say
Music is my mistress and she whispers in my ear
I don t need nobody else to tell me what to
hear
