verse 1: 

G           C               G 
 I'd go beyond our fighting borders 
        D                G       C     G     D 
 If you needed that from me 
G               C         G 
 I'd march with decorated soldiers 
             D              G       C     G     D 
 To get your pretty eyes to see 
G              C                  G 
 Well, I would bring your morning coffee 
          D              G       C      Em     D 
 Then I'd wrap you up in me 
G              C              Em 
 I'd kiss your belly and your shoulders 
       D               G      C     Em      D 
 Cover blankets on our feet 


PREChorus:
