Gm2 

How can it be, you and me

 
Dm7 
might be meant to be,  
Cm7 

can’t unsee it.

But I don’t wanna cause no scene,

 
I’m  
Gm2 
usually so unproblematic
 
so inde
Dm7 
pendent.
 
Tell me  
Cm7 
why
 
D7 
cause the boy is mine, mine.
 
Gm7 
Somethin’ about him
 
is made for some
Dm7 
body 
 
 
Cm7 
like 
 
me.

Baby come over, come over.

 
And  
Gm7 
God knows I’m tryin’,
 
but there’s just no  
Dm7 
use in de
Cm7 
nying. 
 
 
D7 
 
The boy is  
Gm2 
mine,

I can’t even cry, hmm.

 
Ge-
Dm7 
get dressed to the  
Cm7 
nines,

the stars they aligned,

 
the boy is  
Gm2 
mine.

Watch me check the time,

 
I  
Dm7 
can’t believe my  
Cm7 
mind.
 
The boy is di
D7 
vine,

boy is mine.

 
Gm2 

Please know this ain’t what I planned for,

 
Dm7 
probably wouldn’t bet a  
Cm7 
dime or my life on,

there’s gotta be a reason why.

 
My  
Gm2 
girls, they always come through
 
in a sticky situ
Dm7 
ation,
 
say “It’s  
Cm7 
fine,”
 
D7 
happens all the time…
 
Gm7 
Somethin’ about him
 
is made for some
Dm7 
body 
 
 
Cm7 
like 
 
me.

Baby come over, come over.

 
And  
Gm7 
God knows I’m tryin’,
 
but there’s just no  
Dm7 
use in de
Cm7

Dm7

Cm7

The boy is di
D7 
vine,

boy is…

 
Cm7 
 
And I know it’s simply  
Dm7 
meant to be
 
And  
Eb 
I,

I take full accountability for all these years.

 
Cm7 
Promise you I’m not usually
 
Dm7 
like 
 
this,
 
guess it’s like news to me,  
Eb 
to 
 
me.
 
But I  
D7 
can’t ignore my heart, boy.
 
The boy is  
Gm2 
mine,

I can’t even cry, hmm.
