Key: Bb
Chords used:
Intro: Eb-Bb-F-Bb- x2
Verse 1:
it started out good
and started out bad
I still wanted a taste
of what I already had
the fruit is golden
when it falls
from the tree and
spoiled by the
time it gets to me
Chorus 1:
it's a dilemma
of girls and boys
for centuries
should I be with
you? should I
forget about me?
first it feels
right then you
stay up all
night worrying
it's the awful
truth of loving
Verse 2:
could've been noble
but it started out
fast they say that
kind of thing will
never last the peach
is perfect when it
falls from the tree
and bruised by the
time it gets to me
Chorus 2:
it's a dilemma
of boys and
girls for centuries
do I really know you?
do you really need
me? first it feels
right then you write
a novel worrying
about the awful
truth of loving
Bridge 1:
and by the time
you bide your time
a year goes by
and you don't
act any older
and by the time
you bide your time
a year goes by
and you don't
act any older
I wanted to be
sweet so you won't
disappoint me
I wanted to be
sweet so you won't
disappoint me
and when the
stakes are high
I'm careless with
the dice and now
it seems like
I'm pushing my
luck all the time
Verse 3:
it started out good
and started out bad
I still wanted a taste
of what I already had
the peach is perfect
when it falls from the
trees and spoiled by
the time it gets to me
(Repeat Chorus 1)
Bridge 2:
and by the time
you bide your time
a year goes by
and you don't
act any older
and by the time
you bide your time
a year goes by
and you don't
act any older
I wanted to be
sweet so you won't
disappoint me
I wanted to be
sweet so you won't
disappoint me
and when the
stakes are high
I'm careless with
the dice and now
it seems like
I'm pushing my
luck all the time
and all that we
were thinking is
about individuality
and all that we
were thinking is
about individuality
and all that we
were thinking is
about individuality
and all that we
were thinking is
about individuality
Outro:
and by the time
you bide your time
a year goes by
and you don't
act any older
and by the time
you bide your time
a year goes by
and you don't
act any older
I wanted to be
sweet so you won't
disappoint me
I wanted to be
sweet so you won't
disappoint me
and when the
stakes are high
I'm careless with
the dice and now
it seems like
I'm pushing my
luck all the time
all the time
all the time
