A B/A I ain't really sure but it seems I remember the good times, Amaj7 B/A Were just a little bit more in focus. A B/A But when she puts her arms around me, Amaj7 B/A I can somehow rise above it. A B/A Yeah man when I got that little girl standing right by my side, Amaj7 B/A You know I can tell the whole wide world to shove it. CHORUS: E A E A Hey here comes my girl! Here comes my girl!

Amaj7 B/A And man, you know I can't begin to doubt it. A B/A No, because this feels so good and so free and so right, Amaj7 B/A I know we ain't never gonna' change our minds about it.
