C Am
As far as I can tell you're perfect
F G
and there's no such thing as perfect
C Am
So, okay you're not perfect
G
but still
C Am
Men are supposed to be strong
F G
and women are supposed to be perfect
F
and you're perfect
G C
as far as I can tell
[Chorus]
F
and I know you shine a different kind of light
C
when you're not around all of these strangers
F
When the sun goes down and the moon is at its brightest
C G
I know how an attitude changes
G
believe me I do
G
still I think you
C
I think you're perfect
F
and I know you're not perfect
C G C
and that's what's perfect about you
[Verse 2]
C
I need to get to the gym, so I can't get strong
D9
So I can meet a lady who's lucious and long
F
And we could take pictures by the sea
G
While the red sun sets so perfectly
C
But I look into the mirror and now what looks back
D9
Five foot nothing with 40 ounce abs
F
I'll do my work but it might take long
G
And I can act like a jerk when I don't feel strong
[Chorus]
F
and I know I feel a different kind of right
C
When I ease up on expectations
F
When I'm in my underwear by refrigerator light
C G
and I forget about all of my graces
G
Oh I'm a sight to see
G
and I gotta work on my core
G
and I sorta dribble when I pee
G
and apparently I snore
C
but I'm perfect
F
and I know I'm not perfect
C G C
and that's what's perfect about me
[Instrumental]
Am Em
Am Em
Am D G
[Verse 3]
C
Perfect messed me up
Am
I'm not gonna lie, for so long I just beat myself up
F
And held myself to where I never could be
G
And it took a good shrink to point it out to me
C
And he helped me with my head and he helped me with my sight
Am
And I'll tell you what he said that turned on my light
F G
He said if things don't have to be perfect it's a lot easier
G
For them to be right
[Chorus]
F
And I know we feel a different kind of right
C
when we realize we're not in danger
F
Do your work, try to get it right
C G
But take it as an education
G
We're all still in school
G
sit up straight and try not to drool
C
cause you're perfect
F
and I know you're not perfect
C G C
and that's what's perfect about you
C
cause you're perfect
F
and I know you're not perfect
C G C
and that's what's perfect about you
