Like a legend

She breezes in like a legend
You can see it in her eyes
A guitar slung over her shoulder
She's got a heart that's young but wise

And
She's got a strange sense of humor
A song or two about love
You can talk straight to her
You don't always have to use kid gloves

*****
Chorus:
****

I wish she'd come back in
I haven't seen her for a while
I miss her quirky friendliness
And that honest genuine smile

I like who she is
On the way to who she's gonna be
I even kinda like
That she can see through me

****
****

Yeah
She works like the rest of us
At some lousy job all week
Sometimes she belts it out
Sometimes she softly speaks

And
I would pay to see her
If I had any money to my name
I like that she chooses talent
Over that silly (ass) lame fame game

****
Repeat Chorus:
****

N....again

Tell me how it is.........Am C F

Tell me how it is
That you say that you love me
When I saw you out
With another man

And
Tell me how it is
That you say that you need me
But you only need me
To understand

****
chorus:
*****

That
You're the kind
That runs around
Doin
What you will

And
If you were
Ever faithful
It was only
To the thrill

But
Excitement
Let you down
Let you
Take the bruise and fall

For
A love all
Over town
That
Couldn't hear you call

****
****

Why don't you
Quit your blaming game
And set aside
Your foolish pride

Why don't you
Take me as I am
Instead of
Taking me for a ride

****
Repeat chorus:
****

Or are you

The kind
That runs around
Doin
What you will

And
If you were
Ever faithful
It was only
To the thrill

But
Excitement
Let you down
Let you
Take the bruise and fall

For
A love all
Over town
That
Couldn't hear you call

****
****

Why don't you
Quit your blaming game
And set aside
Your foolish pride

Why don't you
Take me as I am
Instead of
Taking me for a ride
