Candy Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Am][Am][Em][Em]
[G][G][D][D]

[Verse 1]
I was [Am]perched outside in the pouring rain
[Em]Trying to make myself a sail
Then I'll [G]float to you, my darlin'
With the [D]evening on my tail
Although not the [Am]most honest means of travel
It [Em]gets me there nonetheless
I'm a [G]heartless man at worst, babe
And a [D]helpless one at best

[Chorus 1]
Darling, I'll [Am]bathe your skin,
I'll even [Em]wash your clothes
Just give me [G]some candy before [D]I go
Oh darling, I'll [Am]kiss your eyes
and lay you down [Em]on your rug
Just give me [G]some candy after [D]my hug

[Verse 2]
Oh, and I'm [Am]often false explaining
But to [Em]her it plays out all the same
And al[G]though I'm left defeated
It gets [D]held against my name
I know you got [Am]plenty to offer, baby
But I guess [Em]I've taken quite enough
Well, I'm some [G]stain there on your bed sheet
You're my [D]diamond in the rough

[Chorus 2]
Darling, I'll [Am]bathe your skin,
I'll even [Em]wash your clothes
Just give me [G]some candy before [D]I go
Oh darling, I'll [Am]kiss your eyes
and lay you down [Em]on your rug
Just give me [G]some candy after [D]my hug, oh

[Solo 1]
[Am][Am][Em][Em]
[G][G][D][D]
[Am][Am][Em][Em]
I [G]know that they're writings on the [D]wall

[Chorus 3]
But darling, I'll [Am]bathe your skin,
I'll even [Em]wash your clothes
Just give me [G]some candy before [D]I go
Oh darling, I'll [Am]kiss your eyes
and lay you down [Em]on your rug
Just give me [G]some candy after [D]my hug

[Outro 1]
Oh, [C]and I'll be there waiting [G]for you
Oh, [C]I'll be there waiting [Em]for you
Oh, [C]I'll be there waiting [G]for you
Oh, [C]I'll be there waiting [Em]for you
Oh, [C]I'll be there waiting [G]for you
Oh, [C]I'll be there waiting [Em]for you
[C]All the cutthroats and their jagged ends
[G]All of them have got me waiting and waiting
[C]All the cheap and the sugary philosophies
[Em]Have got me on the fence
just waiting and waiting
[C]All the angels and and their halos
[G]All they do is keep me waiting and waiting
[C]All the cutthroats and their jagged ends
[Em]All of them have got me waiting and waiting
[C]All the cheap and the sugary philosophies
[G]Have got me on the fence
just waiting and waiting
[C]All the angels and their halos
[Em]All they do is keep me waiting and waiting
