[C#] My [A]
[D] [F#] [C#]
[A] eyes and nose [D] were melting in [F#] your love,
I [C#] [A] [D]
[F#] [C#] might have drowned my net, [A] I ever know it [D] had the wrong [F#] woman as [C#] me.
[A] [D] [F#] But if one takes [C#] it by the [A] hand, the funny man,
I'll [D] forever end [F#] in [C#] family.

[E] [A]
Meeter, he's totally pretending, [C] must be a [F] superhero.
