G Am
Go away from my window
G D G
Leave at your own chosen speed
G Am
I'm not the one you want, babe
G D G
I'm not the one you need
G Am
You say you're lookin' for someone
G Am
Who's never weak but always strong
G Am
To protect you and defend you
G Am
Whether you are right or wrong
C D
Someone to open each and every door
G
But it ain't me babe
G D G
No, no, no, it ain't me babe
C D G
It ain't me you're lookin' for, babe
Go lightly from the ledge, babe
Go lightly on the ground
I'm not the one you want, babe
I'll only let you down
You say you're lookin' for someone
Who'll promise never to part
Someone to close his eyes to you
Someone to close his heart
Someone to die for you and more
Chorus
You say you're lookin' for someone
To pick you up each time you fall
To gather flowers constantly
And to come each time you call
And will love you for your life
And nothin' more
Chorus
