F Dm Bb Dm
My little darlin knows my nature
Bb F C
My little darlin knows my mind
Dm Bb F
She has sheltered me from it all the time
F Dm Bb Dm
For left alone to my own devices
Bb F C
I will tear at the carpet I'll chew the blinds
Dm Bb F
A more feral specimen you won't find
F Bb Dm
But every year I am getting older
Bb F C
And I lose my good looks, lose my charms
Dm Bb Dm
All I used to lure you into my arms
Bb Dm
Who could blame you being cynical
F
You're right the world it is a crypt
C Dm
It's pitiless and cold
Bb Dm
And though I remain skeptical
F
That you still love me
C F Dm Bb Dm Bb F C F
May be the only miracle
F Bb Dm
I never learned to trust a love song
Bb F C
It was not because the words were trite
Dm Bb F
But I felt the love itself was trite
Dm Bb Dm
Now my little darlin I'll sing you a love song
Bb F C
One you can hang your hat on every night
Dm Bb
I will be your witness if you be mine
Dm Bm
I will be your witness if you be mine
Dm C F
I will be your witness if you be my wife
