Chords

[Intro] G C x2 [Verse 1]
G
 To know her is to love her, I'm goin' undercover

C                                  G
 To catch a glimpse but not get caught

G
But to see her could be worse, if I don't get my head straight first

C                               G
 On second thought I guess I'm not
[Pre-Chorus 1]
A                               C
She's almost brighter than the sun

                      G                           A
Seems to me to be unfair, when you consider everyone

                        C
Who pales when they compare, when they compare
[Chorus]
G                                                             C
 Can't hold a candle to her, 'cause all the moths get in the way

                                                         G
Then they'll begin to chew her entire attire until it frays

                                       A               C               G
For she outshines anyone whoever might dare to bask in the same candlelight
[Interlude] (G) C [Verse 2]
G                                                                    C
 Oh, please don't seat us in the back with all the insects and the trash

                         G
She is a lady, I'm the tramp

G
 Collecting stares from pairs close by

                           C
Then flutters in the butterfly

                               G
You, just a moth drawn to the lamp
[Pre-Chorus 2]
A                         C                                      G
She's like an ancient artifact, something you're lucky to have found

                                     A
She'll pinch the nerves in all the necks

                             C
When she turns those heads around
Those heads around [Chorus]
G                                                             C
 Can't hold a candle to her, 'cause all the moths get in the way

                                                         G
Then they'll begin to chew her entire attire until it frays

                                       A               C               G
For she outshines anyone whoever might dare to bask in the same candlelight

        A               C               G
Who may dare to bask in the same candlelight
[Interlude] (G) C G C [Pre-Chorus 3]
A                               C
She's almost brighter than the sun

                      G                           A
Seems to me to be unfair, when you consider everyone

                        C
Who pales when they compare, when they compare
[Chorus]
G                                                             C
 Can't hold a candle to her, 'cause all the moths get in the way

                                                        G
Then they'll begin to chew her entire attire until it frays

                                       A               C               G
For she outshines anyone whoever might dare to bask in the same candlelight

    A7       C     G
In the same candlelight
