Tom: F#
F#
I was a real Casanova in my hometown,
Never really thought about settlin' down
B A F#
That is, until you came around
F#
Yeah, it's been a few years, but I remember it well,
I was a rowdy no-gooder, you were hotter than hell
B A F#
I spent all my time Hot on your trail
[Chorus]
E B F#
You could've run to the mountains, could've sailed across the deep blue sea
E B F#
I knew from the start I couldn't let you get away from me
[Verse 2]
F#
Well, your mama and your daddy they didn't approve,
They told me I was trash and I was born to lose
B A F#
But that didn't faze me I was gonna have you
F#
So I begged and I pleaded, something I'd never done
As sure as tomorrow has a rising sun
B A F#
There was no mistake, Honey you were the one
[Chorus]
E B F#
You could've run to the mountains, could've sailed across the deep blue sea
E B F#
But one thing's for sure you would never get away from me
[Bridge]
F E B F#
The sweetest things in life take you by surprise
E B C#
Like the heaven I see looking in your eyes
D#m B F#
Though you weren't sure how an outlaw's love would be
E B F#
I made up my mind not to let you get away from me
[Instrumental]
E B F# x2
[Verse 3]
F#
As we get a little closer to our rocking chairs
I think back on the good life that we have shared
B A F#
And how our love has grown Down through the years
F#
So snuggle up to me baby, turn out the lights
There's nowhere on this earth I'd rather be tonight
B A F#
Than lying in your arms Holdin' you tight
[Chorus]
E B F#
As time rolls by one thing's still clear to see
E B F#
I'd have been a fool to let you get away from me
E B F#
Yeah yeah, you could've run to the mountains, could've sailed across the deep blue sea
E B F#
But I'd have been a fool to let you get away from me
