C                 Am  
I wish I could do better by you, 
       F           G   C
'cause that's what you deserve
C                     Am
You sacrifice so much of your life
         F        G  C
In order for this to work.


          C
While I'm off chasing my own dreams
Am
Sailing around the world
F                             G
Please know that I'm yours to keep
             C
My beautiful girl

C                       Am
When you cry a piece of my heart dies
        F      G                 C
Knowing that I may have been the cause
   C          
If you were to leave
        Am
Fulfill someone else's dreams
  F             G          C
I think I might totally be lost
          C                           Am
You don't ask for no diamond rings no delicate string of pearls
             F                  G
That's why I wrote this song to sing
             C
My beautiful girl

Am     F    G    C  
Oooooh oooh ohhh ohh
Am     F    G
Oooooh oooh ohhh [2x]

One, two, one two three four
C                 Am  
I wish I could do better by you, 
       F           G   C
'cause that's what you deserve
C                     Am
You sacrifice so much of your life
         F        G  C
In order for this to work.

But you don't ask for no diamond rings (Diamond rings)
   Am      
No delicate string of pearls (String of Pearls)
             F                  G
That's why I wrote this song to sing
             C
My beautiful girl.

I just noticed it might be better if you adjusted the placment of the chord changes just a bit to go with the beat of the song better. For example: (C) I wsh I could do (A) Better by (F) you cause its (G) what you (C) deserve. It just seems a little off beat
