Lyrics

I know that I’ve been (C)messed up, you nev er let me give up, all the nights and the fights and the blood and the (F)break ups, you’re al ways there to call up. I’m a pain, I’m a child, I’m a fraid. But (Am7)yeah, you un der stand, yeah, like no one can. I (G)know that we don’t look like much, but no one ***** it up like us. (C)Six teen, and you nev er e ven judged me. Matter of fact, al ways thought you were too cool (F)for me. Sit ting there in the ca ra van, all the nights we’ve been drunk on the floor. But (Am7)yeah, you un der stand, yeah, like no one can. We (G)both know what they say a bout us, but they don’t stand a chance be cause when I’m with you, when I’m with you I’m stand ing with an ar my, I’m stand ing with an ar my, when I’m with you, when I’m with you I’m stand ing with an ar my, stand ing with an ar my. (C)Dark times, you can al ways find the bright side. I’m a mazed by the things that you would sa (F)cri fice just to be there the for ra me, how you cringe when you sing out of tune. But (Am7)yeah, it’s ev ’ry thing so, don’t change a thing. We (G)both know what they say a bout us, but they don’t stand a chance be cause when I’m with you, when I’m with you I’m stand ing with an ar my, I’m stand ing with an ar my, when I’m with you, when I’m with you I’m stand ing with an ar my, stand ing with an ar my. (C)Stand ing with an ar my, stand ing with an ar my, (Fmaj7)stand ing with an ar my, stand ing with an ar my, (Am)stand ing with an ar my, stand ing with an ar my, I’m stand ing with an ar my.
