Am           G        Am             G         D
Can you understand me Baby don't you hand me a line
Am                  G      Am             G         D
Although it doesn't matter You and me got plenty of time

There's nobody in the future So baby let me hand you my love
Am                         G        Am                  G       D
There's no step for you to dance to So slip your hand inside my glove

I don't want no damage.  How'm I gonna manage with you
Am              G            Am           G          D
You hold the percentage  But I'm the fool payin' the dues
Am                  G      Am           G         D
I'm just around the corner If you got a minute to spare
Am              G       Am          G        D
I'll be waitin' for you If you ever wanna be there.
