 For Intro play verse riff then play the chords A and E twice.
You're  the prince  to my  ballerina,
You  feed other people's  parking meters,
 You encourage  the eating of  ice cream,
You  would somersault  in sand with  me,
 Same chords as verse 1):
 You talk to loners, you ask how's your week,
 You give love to all and give love to me,
 You're obsessed with hiding the sticks and stones,
 When I feel the unknown, You feel like home, you feel like home...
 You put my feet  back on  the ground,
 Did you know  you brought  me round,
 Yeah you were sweet  and you  were sound,
 You saved  me
 Repeat verse riff with these lyrics:
 You're the warmth in my summers breeze,
 You're the ivory to my ebony key,
 You would share your last jelly bean and,
 You would somersault in sand with me...
 Repeat chorus riff.
 verse riff.
 Repeat chorus.
 End with this:
 You put my feet  back on  the ground,
 Did you  know you brought  me round,
 Yeah you were sweet  and you  were sound,
 See I had shrunk  yet still  you wore me around,
And  'round and  'round...
 The verse chords have to be kept in a tight rhythm so the lyrics can flow around them.
