You were only [C]17
Lookin' at your [Em]window screen
Sweetest girl I've [Am]ever seen
Straight up from a [G]project dream
You were on the [C]second floor
I was right across [Em]from you
Two different [Am]sides of war
Kinda like a [G]west side story, now
[C]Leyla, I am in love with you, [Em]Leyla
I'm comin' up any [Am]day now
[G]So bust that window and come with me
[C]Leyla, get all your stuff and we'll [Em]break out
Baby I know what they'll [Am]say now
[G]But I want you anyway
[C] [Em] [Am]
[G]But I want you anyway
[C] [Em] [Am]
[G]But I want you anyway
Now we've turned [C]23
You've moved across [Em]town from me
Our friends and [Am]family, wouldn't let us [G]be happy
I hear you're [C]married now
Hear it ain't [Em]working out
But they can't [Am]shut us down
Leyla just [G]tell me how and I'll be there
[F]You are a goddess, I want you to [G]know (oh-oh-oh-oh)
[Am]I'll never forget you, I'll nerver let [Em]go
Year, I'll be comming go get [C]you
