Seems (C)like there’s al ways (Am7)some one who dis ap (F)proves.

They’ll (C)judge it like they (Am7)know a bout me and (F)you.

And the (C)ver dict comes from (Am7)those with noth ing (F)else to do.

The (G)jur y’s out,

but my choice is (F)you.

And you’ll say So (F)don’t you wor ry your (G)pret ty lit tle mind.

(C)Peo ple throw rocks at (Am)things that shine, and (F)life makes (G)love look (Am)hard.

The stakes are (F)high,

the wa ter’s (G)rough,

but this love is (C)ours.

You (C)nev er know what (Am7)peo ple have up their (F)sleeves.

They’ll (C)Ghosts from your past (Am7)gon na jump out at (F)me.

And the (C)Lurk ing in the (Am7)shad ows with their (F)lip gloss smiles, but (G)I don’t care

’cause right now you’re (F)mine.

And you’ll say So (F)don’t you wor ry your (G)pret ty lit tle mind.
