Life in the city's expensive today
D G Eb D A
I know cuz that's where my girl went when my girl went away
G A D D/C# Bb
She calls me up now just to calm me down, to calm me down
G D
But it's only sound, oh
D G Eb D
Boys will come visit there's no room for doubt
D G Eb D A
I try to stay calm but sometimes I just can't help but shout
G A D D/C# Bb
She runs me down and then she runs to him she says, Aw Tim
G
She says Aw Tim
[A / / / A / / /]
A G D
How can they see more than me in her eyes
Em C A
I realize that she's the prize and I'm the fool

Like a bright summer moon,
