A Lovely Mess

C D G


[Verses]
C               D               G
    I’m not the man that I once was,
C                   D          G
   but I’m changing everyday 
               Em                C
because I want to find someone like 
you.
           D                       
you’ve got eyes that could tear me 
G
down,
             Em             C     
but all they do is build me up. So
         D              G
 hold my hand before my heart 
erupts.
C          D            G    D 
   Darling I may not be 
        Em     C
everything you want,
           D             G     D  Em
but I can give you all I have.
C              D                
   I’m not the perfect man, but you 
G
are
D       Em            C             
 D (Strum Once)
just so perfect and I want to be the
 one that holds your hand.

C               D          G
   I’m sorry if I come off strong
C              D                  
  and it could be that you’re all 
G                Em            C
wrong for me but I just had to see,
               D           G    D
‘Cause you are broken, and I am 
      Em    C
such a wreck.
                    D (Strum Once)
I think we’d make a lovely mess.
C          D            G    D 
   Darling I may not be 
        Em     C
everything you want,
           D             G    D  Em
but I can give you all I have.
C              D                
   I’m not the perfect man, but you 
G
are
D       Em            C             
 D (Strum Once)      G
just so perfect and I want to be the
 one that holds your hand.


Em                            D
Someday we could wake up in a bed we
 call our own
        C                          
I would buy you lots of flowers, 
      G                  D
and someday I'd build your home
        Em                     
I would sing you Frank Sinatra, 
          D
while we sway along and dance,
     C                          
this life of course could be all 
              D
yours if you just give me a chance
C          D            G    D 
   Darling I may not be 
        Em     C
everything you want,
           D             G     D  Em
but I can give you all I have.
C              D                
   I’m not the perfect man, but you 
G
are
D       Em            C             
 D (Strum Once)      C     D   G
just so perfect and I want to be the
 one that holds your hand.

C                 D              
   I'm not those men that made 
   G
you cry
C                D               
   and I promise I will spend my 
G                   Em            
life just trying to make you feel 
D
alive
                         G    D   
cause you are broken and I am such
   Em    C
 a wreck
             D (Strum Once)         
G
I swear I'll love you till I'm dead
