Chords
Em, G, C & D
INTRO
Em, D, G (repeat 2x's)
G
My heart is breaking and I don't know why
Em
She just turned and looked me in the eye
C D
And my mouth hit the floor, speech went out the door
G
Guess I’m back to where I started
G
Just one look and I knew it wasn’t fair
Em
Those big blue eyes and that long blonde hair
C D
She could just stand still, and I’d still lose my will
G
To carry on without her
CHORUS
C
So here I am, a mess of a man
Em
And I don’t think I’ll ever understand
C D
I’m caught up in this girl
G
She could change my world
Verse 2
G
She’s throwing glances, I’m trying not to stare
Em
I’d make a move, but would she even care
C D
Bet she’s heard it all before, but I can’t ignore
G
That summer dress that she’s wearing
G
And my friends say it’s not worth a shot
Em
I could lose my pride and that’s all that I got
C D
Still I give it a go, I’ve just gotta know
G
If I can live without her
CHORUS
C
So here I am, a mess of a man
Em
And I don’t think I’ll ever understand
C D
I’m caught up in this girl
G
She could change my world
Em, D, G
Em D G
She could change my world
Em, D, G
Oh my world
Em D G
She could change my world
CHORUS

So here I am, a mess of a man

I’m caught up in this girl

She could change my world
