Rock steady    (video)

 

    Dm - Am

 

      Dm                                                  Am

1. Years on the run, boy, I know I can take it,

             Dm                                                                   Am

    and now that I’m here, I know you can’t stand the waiting, boy.

              Dm                                                             Am

    Let’s say no more games, no messing with the mind,

         Dm                                                                 Am

    always room for change, let’s give it one more try.

 

    (come on let’s give it a try).

 

               Dm

I got my bags packed, baby, and I’m ready to go,

                  Am

look at my eyes rock steady and I promise you more.

                Dm

I got my heart back, baby, and it’s skipping a beat,

              Am                                                          Dm

I got my ass in check, checkin’ out, I’m ready to feel.

 

        Dm                                                        Am

2. If you’re good to go, I’m right here for the taking (ooh ticky ticky ticky),

     Dm                                                       Am

    don’t cross the line, I promise you, no fakin’, boy (no no no no).

          Dm                                                    Am

    It’s all understood, no messing with the rules (the rules, the rules),

      Dm                                       Am 

    if I let you go, boy, I will be a fool.

 

    (what kind of girl wants to be a fool?).

 

+  CHORUS

 

      Bb                                                                       Dm

+  Tell me, why we act so stupid, the games we’re playing (oooh) !

       Bb                                                                      Dm

    If life is the rule, then we’re heading towards the same thing.

       Bb                                                               Dm

    You and I work best with love instead of the fighting (ooh),

     Bb                                                         Dm    

    let’s get together forever with no more hiding.

 

               Dm

I got my bags packed, baby, and I’m ready to go,

                  Am

look at my eyes rock steady and I promise you more.

                Dm

I got my heart back, baby, and it’s skipping a beat,

               Am                                                         Dm

I got my ass in check, checkin’ out, I’m ready to feel.

 

+  repeat CHORUS
