[ Intro ]

Bb    Eb

[ Verse 1 ]

Bb 
To know her is to love her
                      Eb                             Bb
I'm goin' under cover to catch a glimpse but not get caught
Bb                                                             Eb
But to see her, could be worse, if I don't get my head straight first
                               Bb
On second thought I guess I'll not


[ Pre-chorus 1 ]

C                              Eb
She's almost brighter than the sun
                  Bb                             C                         Eb 
Seems to me to be unfair when you consider # everyone who pales when they compare
             Bb
When they compare

[ Chorus ]

Bb                                                         Eb
Can't hold a candle to her, cause all the moths get in the way
                                                      Bb
And they'll begin to chew her entire attire until it frays
                                    C               Eb             Bb
She outshines anyone whoever might dare to bask in the same candlelight


[ Verse 2 ]

Bb 
Oh please don't seat us in the back
                             Eb
With all the insects and the trash
                      Bb
She is a lady I'm the tramp
Bb             
Collecting stares from pairs close by
                         Eb
Then flutters in the butterfly
                               Bb
You, just a moth drawn to the lamp


[Pre-chorus 2 ]

 C                        Eb
She's like an ancient artifact
                               Bb
Something you're lucky to have found
                                   C
She'll pinch the nerves in all the necks
                           Eb
When she turns those heads around
             Bb
Those heads around


[ Chorus ]

Bb                                                         Eb
Can't hold a candle to her, cause all the moths get in the way
                                                      Bb
Then they'll begin to chew her entire attire until it frays
                                       C               Eb             Bb
For she outshines anyone whoever might dare to bask in the same candlelight
        C              Eb              Bb
Who may dare to bask in the same candlelight

In the same candlelight
