Verse 1:
                  E
He set out with a backpack
             B
a compass in hand
              E
To steal Mona Lisa
                 B  Gb
And that was his plan
             E
a modern-day outlaw
                   B
He'll take what he can
                  E
And vanish before you
                   B  Gb
Like tracks in the sand

Pre-Chorus:
    E            Gb              Abm       Ebm
His pockets were full but his heart was so heavy
    E           Gb       Abm           Ebm
And all these material things can be deadly if
E         Gb             B                 Abm     Gb
No one is there who will share when you're seventy-one

Chorus:
   E  B Dbm B
If only someone
 E     B   Dbm B
Filled the spaces
Abm Gb   E B    Gb
He might settle down

Verse 2:
              E
He met her on Tuesday
                     B
On his way back from France
                 E
He rolled up the painting
                  B  Gb
He stole with his hands
         E
And even Da Vinci
              Abm
Couldn't have sketched
               E
a more perfect woman
                     B Gb
Than the one that he met

Pre-Chorus:
    E            Gb              Abm       Ebm
His pockets were full but his heart was so heavy
    E             Gb   Abm           Ebm
And all these material things can be deadly if
E         Gb             B                 Abm     Gb
No one is there who will share when you're seventy-one

Chorus:
   E  B Dbm B
If only someone
 E     B   Dbm B
Filled the spaces
Abm Gb   E B    Gb
He might settle down

Bridge:
       E
Settle down,
       Abm Gb
settle down,
       E
settle down,
       Abm Gb
settle down

Verse 3:
                  E
He woke up in the morning
             B
With nothing around
                  E
She left with the portrait
                B  Gb
No trace of her found
            E
She was the outlaw
            Abm
She was the one
             E
She took the bounty
                  B Gb
And left him with none

Pre-Chorus:
    E             Gb              Abm            Ebm
His pockets aren't full and his heart is still empty
    E            Gb           Abm        Ebm
And falling in love, it can be just as deadly
    E         Gb            B              Abm     Gb
And no one is there who will care when he's seventy-one

Chorus:
  E B    Dbm B
If only someone
E    B     Dbm B
Filled the spaces
Abm Gb    E  B   Gb
He  might settle down

Outro:
       E
Settle down

Biography

After getting dropped by Columbia Records at 18 years old, singer-songwriter Alec Benjamin built a following by playing in parking lots outside of Shawn Mendes and Troye Sivan concerts. The Phoenix, Arizona native caught the attention of Jon Bellion, earning a songwriting credit on Bellion’s debut album and later joined him on tour.

To build on the momentum, Benjamin began uploading new songs to his YouTube channel at a rapid clip and eventually earned a viral hit with “I Built a Friend” and a deal with Atlantic Records.
