A Lovely Mess

C D G


[Verses]
C               D               G
    I’m not the man that I once was,
C                   D          G               Em                C
   but I’m changing everyday because I want to find someone like you.
           D                       G
you’ve got eyes that could tear me down,
             Em             C              D              G
but all they do is build me up. So hold my hand before my heart erupts.
C          D            G    D         Em     C
   Darling I may not be everything you want,
           D             G     D  Em
but I can give you all I have.
C              D                G
   I’m not the perfect man, but you are
D       Em            C              D (Strum Once)
just so perfect and I want to be the one that holds your hand.

C               D          G
   I’m sorry if I come off strong
C              D                  G                Em            C
  and it could be that you’re all wrong for me but I just had to see,
               D           G    D      Em    C
‘Cause you are broken, and I am such a wreck.
                    D (Strum Once)
I think we’d make a lovely mess.
C          D            G    D         Em     C
   Darling I may not be everything you want,
           D             G    D  Em
but I can give you all I have.
C              D                G
   I’m not the perfect man, but you are
D       Em            C              D (Strum Once)      G
just so perfect and I want to be the one that holds your hand.


Em                            D
Someday we could wake up in a bed we call our own
        C                                G                  D
I would buy you lots of flowers, and someday I'd build your home
        Em                               D
I would sing you Frank Sinatra, while we sway along and dance,
     C                                        D
this life of course could be all yours if you just give me a chance
C          D            G    D         Em     C
   Darling I may not be everything you want,
           D             G     D  Em
but I can give you all I have.
C              D                G
   I’m not the perfect man, but you are
D       Em            C              D (Strum Once)      C     D   G
just so perfect and I want to be the one that holds your hand.

C                 D                 G
   I'm not those men that made you cry
C                D               G                   Em            D
   and I promise I will spend my life just trying to make you feel alive
                         G    D      Em    C
cause you are broken and I am such a wreck
             D (Strum Once)         G
I swear I'll love you till I'm dead
