Verse 1:

You can try to please me
But it won’t be easy

Stone walls surround me

I’m surprised that you even found me

And you don’t stand an outside chance
(you don’t stand an outside chance)
B7 E
You don’t stand an outside chance

Whatever you do girl
You know you can’t get through girl
Can’t bring me down
Hang me up or even hang around
