Intro: Am Em Am I was perched outside in the pouring rain Em Trying to make myself a sail G Then Iʼll float to you my darlinʼ D With the evening on my tail Am Although not the most honest means of travel Em It gets me there nonetheless G Iʼm a heartless man at worst, babe D And a helpless one at best Chorus: Am Darling Iʼll bathe your skin Em Iʼll even wash your clothes G Just give me some candy D Before I go Am Oh, darling Iʼll kiss your eyes Em And lay you down on your rug G Just give me some candy D After my hug Am Oh Iʼm often found explaining Em But to her it plays out all the same G and although Iʼm left defeated D It getʼs held against my name Am I know you got plenty to offer baby Em But I guess Iʼve taken quite enough G Well Iʼm some stain there on your bedsheet D Youʼre my diamond in the rough Chorus: Am Darling Iʼll bathe your skin Em Iʼll even wash your clothes G Just give me some candy D Before I go Am Oh, darling Iʼll kiss your eyes Em And lay you down on your rug G Just give me some candy D After my hug Instrumental: Am Em Bridge: G D I know that thereʼre writings on the wall Am But Darling Iʼll bathe your skin Em Iʼll even wash your clothes G Just give me some candy D Before I go Outro: C G Iʼll be there waiting for you C G Oh Iʼll be there waiting for you C Em Oh Iʼll be there waiting for you C G Iʼll be there waiting for you C Em Iʼll be there waiting for you C All the cutthroats and their jagged ends G All of them have got me waiting and waiting C All the cheap and their sugary philosophies Em Have got me on the fence just waiting and waiting
