Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]I just want some girl to love me bac[Em]k
[C]Tell me I'm her [G]only and
[C]take away [G]the lonely
This deep love in my heart
can't go to [Em]waste
'Cause if I [C]won't get to meet [G]God
and [C]I won't get to be [G]a god
Then at least, [C]God,
let me get [G]loved back by [Am]a girl

[Verse 2]
I just [G]want some girl to
talk to [Em]me[Am][Em]
And [C]tell me that I'm dif[G]ferent
or [C]say that I'm [G]the same
I don't care what she thinks,
just think of [Em]me
'Cause if I [C]won't get to meet [G]God
[Bm]and [C]I won't get to be [G]a god
Then at least, [C]God,
let me get [G]talked to by [Am]a girl
This [G]is what I want,

[Verse 3]
this is what [Am]I need
If I ask real [C]nice, will you give her [G]to me?
If I just say, "Please, this is what [Am]I need"
But if I can't have [C]that, well, then at least

[Verse 4]
I just [G]want some girl to look my [Em]way
And [C]see that I am [G]better than the [C]others,
that I mat[G]ter
In her life, I wanna be a [Em]friend
'Cause if I [C]won't get to meet [G]God
and [C]I won't get to be [G]a god
Then at least, [C]God,
let me get noticed by [Am]a girl

[Verse 5]
In this great [C]world, we just plan [G]to live
But you can't plan [Am]love,
love's from [C]above
And if I do have [G]a choice,
I'll just put [C]one foot in front of the [G]other
I'll say [C]one word after an[G]other in my [Am]voice
If I have a choice
[C]

[Verse 6]
I just want some girl beneath [Em]my feet
To [C]tell me I'm [G]her king and
[C]then beg me for [G]a ring
And I want her to be afraid of [Em]me
[G]And thi[C]nk that I might lea[G]ve her and
[C]that I will not [G]believe her
When she says that she loves
and cares [Em]for me
'Cause if I [C]won't get to meet God
[G]and [C]I won't get to be a god
Then at least, God,
let me get wor[G]shipped by [Am]a girl

[Verse 7]
In this great [C]world, we just plan [G]to live
But you can't plan [Am]love,
love's from [C]above
This is what [G]I want, this is what [Am]I need
If I ask real [C]nice, will you give [G]her to me?
If I just say, "Please, this is what [Am]I need"
But if I can't have [C]that, well, then [G]at least
This is what I want (this is what I want)
This is what [Am]I say (this is what I say)

[Outro 1]
And this is what I pray
[G][Am][G][Am][G][Am]
[G][Am][G][Am][G][Am][G]
[Am][G][Am][G]
