Got three chords that say I'm no good for anyone
Got three chords that I want you to hear
And I hope that they carry this melody
Across all the states between my mouth to your ears
Got this song and it's no good for anyone
Dont know why I'd want you to hear
And it goes like you'd think
There's no tricks up my sleeve
It goes from my heart to your ears
And all that I've got are the words to this song
And all that I've got in my heart is all wrong
And I called my dad said I hope that you're proud of your son
Got three chords that say I'm no good for anyone
Got three chords that I want you to hear
And I hope that they will find a remedy
To keep you okay cause there's nothing to fear
Got this song and it's no good for anyone
Don't know what brought you to me
And it goes like you know
There's not much I've got ahold of
It goes from my heart to your bedside my dear
And all that I've got are the words to this song
And all that I've got in my heart is all wrong
And I called my dad said I hope that you're proud of your son
