When I first laid eyes on you

And I gave him my best shot

C Dsus4
Man, I thought I could show you
G D Em//
I've always been afraid of flying
G Am G G D Dsus4 D C Csus2 C (2x)
But you can't blame a girl for trying
Verse 2:
C G
Felt like a pearl when I was holding your hand
D C
So precious I forgot

You could have any girl but I only wanted one man
Em D C
And you were everything I'm not
Still I gave it my best shot
