A Lovely Mess Chords by Front Porch Step

_ _ [F#] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [B] _
_ I'm not [F#] the man that I once was
_ _ _ _ _ _ [B] _
But I'm [F#] changing every day because I want [D#m] to find someone [B] like you
And you've [F#] got eyes that can tear me down
But all they [D#m] do is build me up
So hold [F#] my hand before my heart erupts
_ [B] _ And [C#] darling I may not [F#] be [C#] everything [D#m] you want
_ _ [B] _ But I [C#] can give you all [F#] I [C#] have
_ [D#m] _
_ _ _ [B] _ I'm not [C#] the perfect man
[F#] But you [C#] are just [D#m] so perfect
And [B] I want to be [C#] the one that holds [B] your hand
[F#] I'm _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [B] _ _ sorry [F#]
if I come off strong _ _ _
_ _ _ _ And it could [C#] be that you're [F#] all wrong for me
[F] But I just had [B] to see
Cause you [C#] are broken
[F#] And I [G#] am such [D#m] a wreck
I _ [B] _ _ think [D#] we'd make a lovely mess
[B] _ And darling [C#]
I may not [F#] be [C#] everything [D#m] you want
_ _ [B] _ But I [C#] can give you all [F#] I [C#] have
_ [D#m] _
_ _ _ [B] _ I'm not [C#] the perfect man
[F#] But you [C#] are just [D#m] so perfect
And [B] I want to be [C#] the one [G#] that holds [F#] your hand _ _ _
_ _ _ [D#m] Someday we could wake up [C#] in a bed we call our own
[B] I would buy you lots of flowers [F#] and someday I'd build [C#] your home
[D#m] I would sing you phrases I'm not sure [C#] why we'd sway along and dance
[B] This life of course could be all [C#] yours if you'd just give me a chance
[B] _ And darling [C#]
I may not [F#] be [C#] everything you [D#m]
want
But _ [B] _ _ I can [C#]
give you all [F#] I _ [C#] _ _ [D#m] _
_ _ _ [B] have
I'm not the [C#]
perfect man
But you are just so [D#m]
perfect
And I [B] want to be the [C#]
one that [B] holds your hand
_ [F#] _
_ _ _ _ I'm _ _
_ _ _ [D#m] _ _ not [F#] those men that made you cry
And _ _
_ _ _ [D#m] _ I promise [F#] I will spend my life
Just trying [D#m] to make you feel [G#m] alive
Cause you are [C#]
broken
_ [F#] And I am such a wreck
_ _ _ _ [B] I swear [C#] I'll love you [F#] till I'm dead _ _ _
