Show them all your good parts

a pretty girl that you've never met

I once heard the worse thing

a man could do is draw a hungry crowd
    A             Am7              A6
Tell everyone his name, pride, and confidence
     A              D   Dm7  Dadd9  D

I'm not sure I bought those words

As they now mean to me
