[A] Cause every [C#m] single story [D] is a story [A] about love
[Bm] Both [E] the overflowing cup [A] and the painful [D] life thereof
You [A] got the heart [E] of a dove
[F#m] But you [E] play [Bm] in the [D] street at night
[F#m] You [E] blow just [Bm] like a broken [D] kite
[F#m] [E] My girl, [Bm] you're giving up the [D] fight
