Everybody will love you

EVERYBODY WILL LOVE YOU (E A D G B E, capo 2)

Perfect songs are not true. Don’t get stuck on a point of view. Everybody loves you.

 

I don’t know why I yelled at you. Even though it was years ago. I think about it all the time.

And we never talked about it. I don’t know if we even should. But I’m writing a song about it so it feels we probably should.

 

Perfect songs are not true. Don’t get stuck on a point of view. Everybody loves you.

 

I could sit here all day. I really mean it. But there’s a dirty bathroom and I’ve got to clean it.

And if I want to buy the new Jeff Parker record then I’ve got to find a way to make some money and it would be nice to pay for dinner and flowers and not have to take money out of my savings.

 

Perfect songs are not true. Don’t get stuck on a point of view. Everybody loves you.

 

And now we’re going to have a baby. And I think I can be a good dad. But I don’t really know what that means.

Because I really want to be around. And we’ve come this far without me having a real job. But we live in a shack with a hole in the roof.

 

Perfect songs are not true. Don’t get stuck on a point of view. Everybody loves you.

And I won’t pretend I know what to do. Or what the best thing is for you. But everybody loves you. Everybody loves you. Everybody will love you.
