The Rifles
Spend Lifetime
Standard tuning Capo 2nd fret
Intro G, Em
G Em
As I walk up her street
G Em
I lift my head up and I face yer
G Em
You look good and you smell sweet
G Em
It makes it harder to embrace yer
G Em
If I was back in primary
G Em
In a playground I would chase yer
G Em
But Im not, Im just me
G Em
And though you might be what I’m looking for
Bm Em
But my head wont function properly
Bm Em
And my feet don’t move in time
Bm Em
And next week I’ll forget probably
Bm Em
But today you blow my mind
G Em
And as we talk I go all red
G Em
And I’m feeling like a school kid
G Em
All these thoughts that fill my head
G Em
I bet I say something stupid
G Em
Just play it cool, and keep it calm
G Em
And remember what you mother said
G Em
“Now boy, just use your charm”
G Em
But all that good advice gets lost somewhere
Bm Em
Cause my mouth just won’t work right today
Bm Em
Oh my head is full with lines
Bm Em
If only I could find the words to say
Bm Em
We could spend a lifetime
G Em
G
Em G Em G
Spend a lifetime
Em
Spend a lifetime
(Outro)
Bm Em Bm
Em
Spend a lifetime (repeat to fade)
