[A] [D]
[A]
[E] I give you fair warning, he's no bed [D] of roses, [A] sweet Bonnie.
[D]
[A]
[E] I can't see him finding the time to [Bm] raise children, [E] [A] hell no.
[D] [A]
[Bm] He's wild and he's reckless, ain't nothing but trouble.
You're better [E] [A]
without [E] him.
[F#m] [Bm]
You think hard, sweet Bonnie, then you should think [D] once again.
We [A] both know [E]
[Em] you can [F#] do better [Bm] than [A#] him.
[Dm] Why you [E] deserve someone [F#m] who's there [C#] all the time.
[A] Someone [B] who thinks [D] crime don't pay.
[A] I still see [E]
[Em] the snowy [F#] white dress that [Bm] you [A#] wore.
[Dm] Playing [E] the angel [F#m] in some dumb [C#] school play.
[A] For a while [B] I thought [D] that you would fly [A] away.
[D]
[A]
[E] [D]
[Bm] I [A] still see [C#m]
[C#] the apple [F#] cheeked girl that [Bm] you were.
[A#]
[Dm] Hiding [E] in tree [F#m] tops, feeding [F] the birds, [A] making [D#] up rhymes.
[D] How you [Bm] love
[D] pretty
[A] [D] words.
[A]
[C#] You could find someone [F#m] that people [G] respect.
[C] [Em] A man who [B] is [E] rich and small.
[C#] Someone who's known in [F#] all [C#] the right [F#m] places.
[D] And knows the [Bm] good book by heart.
But [A] I know
[E] [Em] you [F#] won't do better [Bm] than me.
[A#] [Dm] Not when [E] it comes down [F#m] to love that [C#] is true.
[A] There's no [B] man who [D] could love you [E]
like I [C#m] do.
