B
Lady, I get nervous
B
Just a-being in your service
Emaj9
Words are full of indecision
Emaj9
They evince the troubled nimble wit

But storm and pessimism stead of dreaming
Emaj9
Being good for me
Emaj9
And just a standing in your pretty prison
B
You're standing here
[Refrão]

You think you love me, don't you?

Maybe you're the presence

that begs needing other reasons

I got "summer still looks pretty"
Emaj9

Oh, living for the people

That have nothing but their blues
Emaj9
And I have nothing to be nervous about
Emaj9 B
Hungerin' over you
[Refrão]
D E
In the same rich path

You and I align
