Intro 2x: Em Dm G Am

Em                 Dm
There's no need to fear me
G          Em              Dm              G
Darling, I love you as you are when you're alone
Em               Dm
I'd never try to change you
   G                    Em                  Dm                 G
As if I could, and if I were to, what's the part that I'd miss most?
Em                      Dm
When you're smiling and astride me
      G                   Em                Dm           G
I can hardly believe I've found you and I'm terrified by that

Am G (x2)

Em Dm G Am (x2)

Em                  Dm
I've got nothing to hide from you
G                        Em                Dm              G
Kissing my brother in my dreams or finding God knows in my jeans
Em              Dm
You see me as I am, it's true
G                              Em             Dm            G
Aimless, fake drifter, and the horny manchild mama's boy, to boot

( Am G )

               Am   G
That's how you live free
      Am         G
Truly see and be seen

( Em Dm G Am )(2x)
( G Am G C )
