Intro: D Verse G D Baby, I couldn't hide no matter how hard I descry. A D Was foolish to have begun to believe I'd ever outrun. G D And honey, I had no call to try and escape at all, A D 'Cause by the time I got free, love caught up to me. G D Baby, I used to have ways to avoid any place, A D That even had half the chance to cut in on my dance. G D Yeah, my cool heart hung around, only if it couldn't be found, A D But showed up permanently, when love caught up to me.Instrumental A G D A D G D A D Verse G D Hey, I could never afford honey, all it would cost, A D To replace what you do if it ever got lost. G D But baby, I'd beg and steal just to keep how I feel, A D A way I never did need, 'til love caught up to me.F# G The fascinations of each lie, F# G I told myself were reasons why E F The feeble boast I made alone, Bb A Sounds faded, worn and all outgrown.Bridge G D Baby, I couldn't hide no matter how I descry.
