[G] I was just a lonely [C] man in so many ways
Till [F] you loved me, girl, [Dm] and I [G] was your holy man
You came [G] into my life, [C] I'm [Am] raised
In [F] those bad, bad [G] old days that used [F] to be
[C] Every day I [F] sleep the fullest [Am] truth
But one thing, girl, I'm telling you
[C] The [Bb] sun goes down [F] around her every [Am] night
To see your smile, your [F] face, and hold you tight

[Am] But I'll give you everything, believe me, girl
[G] I'm [Bb] gonna really make [F] it to the [C] top
Nothing in this world's gonna make me [E] stop
You sure put a [Am] magic spell on me

This last September, [Am]
