Lyrics and Music by James Keogh


Intro: Bm A | D  } 2 times

Bm              A                D
I was scared of dentists and the dark,
Bm              A
I was scared of pretty girls
    D
And starting conversations.
    Bm         A               D
Oh, all my friends are turning green,
           Bm           A
You’re the magician’s assistant
         D
In their dream.

       Bm A   D
   Ah, oh-ooh-oh,
       Bm A         D
   Ah, oh, and they come unstuck.

Chorus:
     Bm    A                   D
     Lady, running down to the riptide
                       Bm
     Taken away to the dark side.
     A               D
     I wanna be your left hand man.
       Bm
     I love you
     A                        D
     When you’re singing that song and
                        Bm
     I got a lump in my throat ‘cause
     A                       D
     You’re gonna sing the words wrong.

Bm                 A                   D
There’s this movie that I think you’ll like,
     Bm             A
This guy decides to quit his job
    D
And heads to New York City.
     Bm       A               D
This cowboy’s running from himself,
    Bm                A                D
And she’s been living on the highest shelf.

       Bm A  D
   Ah, oh-oh-oh,
       Bm A         D
   Ah, oh, and they come unstuck.

Chorus:
     Bm    A                   D
     Lady, running down to the riptide
                       Bm
     Taken away to the dark side.
     A               D
     I wanna be your left hand man.
       Bm
     I love you
     A                        D
     When you’re singing that song and
                        Bm
     I got a lump in my throat ‘cause
     A                       D
     You’re gonna sing the words wrong.

Bridge:
   Bm                           A
   I just wanna, I just wanna know
   D                                  G
   If you’re gonna, if you’re gonna stay,
   Bm                           A
   I just gotta, I just gotta know.
   D
   I can’t have it,
                   G
   I can’t have it any other way,
     Bm          A                  D
   I swear she’s destined for the screen,

   Closest thing to Michelle Pfeiffer
   D
   That you’ve ever seen, oh.
