Back in the wood where it's good and the days are yeah long

Well I saw me a child, she was wild like a lady going all wrong

Dark as the night, she was right for a little conversation

So I pulled her right in and she said she had some imagination

F A# A#sus4 A#
We didn't speak, felt weak, got tangled up in her hair
F A# A#sus4 A#

Then around the world I would go like jumping on a jet plane
