C        G                F
I like what you do and I like
that you keep doin' it
 C              G             F
Your eyes look mighty fine I really think
I'm losin' it
Am G  F
Oh oh oh
Am G  C
Oh oh oh

Pretty boy, don't be shy, I like all your bad ideas
Ain't this a nice surprise to find a man so dear?
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh

Chorus:
 C                            G
Say you'll be my baby and I'll be your girl and
F                Am         G
You can have this heart of mine,
      C              G          F
'Cause I would walk a thousand miles
Am       G         C
Just to make you smile

You taste like sugar mints and cigarettes and beer
I used to hate this town but
I'll stay because you're here
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh

All them skinny girls are bitter and reserved
If you want a louder love, then
I'm just what you deserve
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh

Chorus:
Say you'll be my baby and I'll be your girl and
You can have this heart of mine
'Cause I would walk a thousand miles
If you say you'll be my baby,
I will be your girl and
You can have this heart of mine
'Cause I would walk a thousand miles
Just to make you smile
Just to make you smile
