Verse 1: Anne-Marie & Sean Paul
              Am   F          G    Em
She works the night, by the water
             Am             F
She's gone astray, so far away
                    G        Em
From her father's daughter
                Am  F         G     Em
She just wants a life for her baby
           Am                F
All on her own, no one will come
             G               Em
She's got to save him (daily struggle)

I'm gonna give you all of my love
