I was livin' on the west side Am G F
When you pulled me south Dm F
At firts you did a lot of love for me Am G F
Your borders were closed Dm F
I tought you said you had company Am G F
Where you stayed in touch Dm F
You made a hard work for me Am G F
Working for your love Dm F
but now
Dm Em F Well we can saddle down
Dm Em F And start a family
Dm Em F Cus' you're my best friend
Dm Em F And you're so good to me
Dm Em F Well we can saddle down
Dm Em F And start a family
Dm Em F Cus' you're my best friend
Dm Em F And this is love so when you're 23
(The chords are still same)
You were livin' in the city
You had the world at your feet
Yeah you had a part time job
Just to be livin' free
You made a hard work for me
I had to work for your love
and now
Well we can saddle down
And start a family
Cus' you're my best friend
And you're so good to me
Yeah we can saddle down
And start a family
Cus' you're my best friend
And this is love so when you're 23
(Then the Chorus repeats 'till the end)
The lyrics are not 100% correct 'cus I made them from live version which I heard in Leipzig.
I'm working it out as soon as the song is released :-) ENJOY!
