Bb Dm Eb

[verse]
Bb         Dm       Eb
I don't want no time on the big screen.
Bb    Dm       Eb
I'm okay with me and my ripped jeans and
 Bb Dm Eb      Bb Dm Eb
you,     and you.
Bb      Dm    Eb
Messy hair, that's what he likes on me.
Bb        Dm      Eb
I don't care as long as we're
     Bb
happy and free
Dm     Eb
to be just you and me,
Bb      Dm    Eb

[pre-chorus]
Dm                  Eb
They think it's a shame
          Bb               Eb
that the world will never know our names,
Dm                    Eb
  but I think that's okay,
      Bb
'cuz love gets ruined by
   Eb
money and power and fame,

[chorus]
               Bb        Dm
And we're just 2 poor kids from a
Eb
really rich city.
Bb     Dm          Eb
My oh my, what a pity.
      Bb            Dm
'Cuz we've got a love story
  Eb
unlike the rest,
Bb          Dm      Eb
no fancy suit and no fancy dress.
     Bb        Dm       Eb
Just us, just us, just love, just love
     Bb        Dm         Eb
Just us, just us, just love, just love

[verse]
Bb   Dm       Eb
He picks her up in a Benz,
   Bb  Dm      Eb
but my lover comes by himself and a
Bb Dm    Eb
do-zen roses,
      Bb  Dm   Eb
he probably stole 'em.
Bb          Dm        Eb
He's got a smudge of mud on his eye
Bb         Dm      Eb
here to makes me break into smile,
Bb        Dm        Eb
'cuz he drives them mad, oh,
Bb   Dm         Eb
he drives them mad.

Bb        Dm Eb
Dollar signs   all around us,
Bb       Dm Eb
we sneak onto the city bus.
Bb     Dm        Eb              Bb
Too blinded by what we have to notice
  Dm Eb
your mean old laughs.
