 Intro*:
To  know her is to love her
 I'm goin' under cover  to catch a glimpse but not get caught
But  to see her, could be worse, if I don't get my head straight first
 On second thought I guess I'll not
She's  almost brighter than the sun
 Seems to me to be unfair  when you consider everyone  who pales when they compare
 When they compare
Can’t  hold a candle to her, ‘cause all the moths get in the way
 And they’ll begin to chew her entire attire until it frays
 She outshines anyone whoever might dare  to bask in the  same candlelight
Oh  please, don’t seat us in the back
 With all the insects and the trash
 She is the lady, I’m the tramp.
Collecting  stares from pairs close by
 Then flutters in the butterfly
 You, just a moth drawn to the lamp
 She’s  like an ancient artifact;
 Something you’re lucky to have found
 She’ll pinch the nerves in all the necks
 When she turns those heads around
 Those heads around
 * = The intro chords are also the chords that are played between chorus/verse/
 wherever you like. :P
 - At the end of the actual song, it goes "C, Eb, C, Eb" and then some other chord
 before resolving at Bb. I can't really figure it out. >_> I guess if you find it
 out, you could put a comment on my profile about it.
 - I'm 95% sure I got the right chords here, but just to cover myself, this is just
 my interpretation so yeh. :P
