In my true love gone, so young [F#] and fat and warm.
[A] No time for games, they make me [F#m]
way bigger and stronger.
Then I [D] look for love, just a little [E] understanding.
That's all there can [A] be, tell me a story.
Take me [F#m] to another land, [F#]
[D] where love will fall in.
There's one I'll [A] never understand.
