 As I walk  up her street
 I lift my head  up and I face  yer
 You look good  and you smell sweet
 It makes it harder  to embrace  yer
 If I was back  in primary
 In a playground  I would chase  yer
 But Im not,  Im just me
 And though you might  be what I’m looking  for
 But my head  wont function properly
 And my feet  don’t move in time
 And next week  I’ll forget probably
 But today  you blow my mind
 And as we talk  I go all red
 And I’m feeling  like a school  kid
 All these thoughts  that fill my head
 I bet I  say something stupid
 Just play it cool,  and keep it calm
 And remember  what you mother  said
 “Now boy,  just use your charm”
 But all that good  advice gets lost  somewhere
 Cause my mouth  just won’t work right  today
 Oh my head  is full with lines
 If only I  could find the words  to say
 We could spend  a lifetime

Readable chord sheet for Spend A Lifetime by The Rifles

[Am7]  [Em]

As I [Am7]walk up her [Em]street
I lift my [Am7]head up and I [Em]face yer
You look [Am7]good and you smell [Em]sweet
It makes it [Am7]harder to [Em]embrace yer
If I was [Am7]back in prim[Em]ary
In a [Am7]playground I would [Em]chase yer
But Im [Am7]not, Im just [Em]me
And though you [Am7]might be what I’m [Em]looking for

But my [Bm]head wont function [Em]properly
And my [Bm]feet don’t move in [Em]time
And next [Bm]week I’ll forget [Em]probably
But to[Bm]day you blow my [Em]mind
And as we [Am7]talk I go all [Em]red
And I’m [Am7]feeling like a [Em]school kid
All these [Am7]thoughts that fill my [Em]head
I bet [Am7]I say something [Em]stupid
Just play it [Am7]cool, and keep it [Em]calm
And re[Am7]member what you [Em]mother said
“Now [Am7]boy, just use your [Em]charm”
But all that [Am7]good advice gets lo[Em]st somewhere

Cause my [Bm]mouth just won’t work [Em]right today
Oh my [Bm]head is full with [Em]lines
If only [Bm]I could find the [Em]words to say
We could [Bm]spend a lifetime[Em]

[Am7]  [Em]
