[VERSE I]
C Bm
I could write the book of you
C
And illustrate the pages
Am
You shouldn't read it
C Bm
I'm the one that you put down
C
It was written in a hurry
Am
Slipped through your fingers
[CHORUS]
G C
I do everything I should
G
I still gotta learn
C
How to be good
G C
You got two strong arms, I see
G
Can't you bring them around
C
Wrap them around me?
G Em Am
[VERSE II]
C Bm
Layin' the storms down at your feet
C
Maybe you're better shelter
Am
Maybe do my hard work for me
C Bm
Oh, I kick and scream, but the job is mine
C
So I'll stay by the ocean
Am
You got your own hills to climb, oh
[CHORUS]
G C
I do everything I should

I still gotta learn

And I've got two strong arms, you see
G
I've got to bring them around

Wrap them around me

Still they let me see on through to the other side

And the Southern Cross has got you

In her sights
