Eels
[Intro]
G D Am D
G D C D

[Verse]
G             D        Am           D
Not much of a man, but still I am a man
    G             D           C    D
And you bring out something inside me
  G              D          Am             D
A perfect little diamond, a fragile little fire
       Em         Em          Bm    Bm     D   D
You're everything good in the world,    to me

[Chorus]
G   D           Am          D          G
  I want to protect you, (I want to protect you)
  D           C           D
I want you to be safe and sound,
   G             D
At night in this world,
       Cadd9    Cadd9         Am     Am
Such a delicate girl needs someone
                    D
To look out for the wolves,
             G          D C D
I want to protect you.

[Verse]
  G               D           Am             D
I say some stupid sh*t, don't mean a word of it
    G            D             C    D
You know I got a lot of love inside me
     G               D         Am            D
This world's an ugly place for such a pretty face
        Em        Em           Bm    Bm  D                                 D
They're comin' at you from all sides       but they gotta get through me

[Chorus]
G D          Am           D          G
I want to protect you, (I want to protect you)
  D           C           D
I want you to be safe and sound
   G             D
At night in this world
       Cadd9    Cadd9          Am    Am
Such a delicate girl needs someone

Not many understand, but I'm your biggest fan
G            D              C    D
  The savage fools cannot appreciate
    G          D    Am              D
The miracle of you, how could it be true
       Em         Em         Bm     Bm    D  D
You're everything good in the world
