Standard (EADGBE)

 Intro x2

There's a boy I like south of the river

 That doesn't leave his house the morning up till noon

Not even when the flowers are in bloom

We could take a stroll or just share, you know

 I just want to be your lady, oh come home soon

They say I'm a fool

 I'm standing in the cold without a coat, but

I just won't go down, down, down

Down down down

Let me show you the beat of my heart

Let it start, let it start X2

Maybe the stars will go our way

 Lover, I will never ever let you stray

And I hope to see you some day

We could watch the night sky fade to blue

 Listen to your heart and maybe you will break through

Breaking the rules

 Even though I'm standing in the rain without a coat, but

I just won't go down, down, down

Down down down

Let me show you the beat of my heart

Let it start, let it start X2

Come and get the keys to my heart

Let it start, let it start

Let me show you the beat of my heart

Let it start, let it start

 Break x2

Solo

y bit chords (play twice)

then

Slowly show you the beat of my heart

Let it start, just let it start

Let me show you the beat of my heart

Let it start, let it start

 And you could be the first time I need a chart

Just let it start, let it start

Let me show you the beat of my heart

Let it start, let it start

(rhythms different here)

Do let's show you the beat of my heart

I just won't go down, down, no, down

 Down down down.
