C Am
If you crave for romance I will show up bearing flowers
G F G
and if you need a good listener I could hear you talk for hours
C Am
If you're in need of something stronger I will be your man
G F E
and if you want somebody just to make the effort I'll do everything I can
Pre-Chorus 1: (note the F comes a beat before the singing)
F F# G
Just don't go pinning all your hopes down on me
Gm F# F
cause i can make you a pretty promise girl
F# G
but that's no guarantee.
[Refrão]

Cause I'm no perfect soul

These days I'm rolling out of control
C Am
but all I know to be true
G F E
is I got good intentions for you
verse 2:
C Am
So if you need a cleaner I'll take out the trash
G F G
and if you're short on money girl well I can spare a little cash
C Am
and if you cannot hold your liquor well honey I'll hold back your hair
G F E
If all you need is some distraction girl well hey what's that over there
Pre-Chorus 2:
F F# G
I swear you'll never find me whoring around

well I know there's plenty other ways that I can let you down
[Refrão]

So if you need a dancing partner I'll bust out some awkward moves

And if you settle for some loser girl I sure know how to lose

These days I'm mostly out of control

see I got these good intentions for you good intentions for you

I'm no perfect soul

these days well that's just the way I roll

I got these good intentions good intentions for you
