[Verse 1]
Am C F G
Can you see the lone girl on the side of the street?
Am C E
Looking desperate for a change, away from the concrete.
Am C F G
A new home, just a room, it would make her day.
Am C E
And she earned just enough, so that she could pay.
[Pre-Chorus]
Dm Bb F C
Let the past be the past, she is not telling lies
Dm Bb E
But who could believe her with caleidoscope eyes?
[Chorus]
Am F G Em
All I want is your love, I want it now
Am F G Am
I want it to last forever + Riff 2
Am F G Em
Do anything you need to make her stay
Am F G Am
Your sweet poison Salomé

She could fall back behind, every single moment
Am C E
At the end of the month, then there'll be no rent
[Pre-Chorus]
Dm Bb F C
Let the past be the past, she is not telling lies
Dm Bb E
But who could believe her with caleidoscope eyes?

I want it to last forever + Riff 2
