[Verse 1]
       G       Cadd9
What a peach! A sight
      G        Cadd9
 for sore eyes!
    G           Cadd9
someone who devastates
 you with the
G                   Cadd9
truth, and all her white lies.
    D
I believed her
D7             G
for keeps and all times.

[Verse 2]
G               Cadd9
Once you get a taste of
         G
her on your
              Cadd9
tongue and in your mind,
            D D7
that is it, the
          G
claiming of you.

[Verse 3]
G                    Cadd9
Your faded heart is waiting
          G
 farther like the
         Cadd9
wind you sail through
          D   D7
and your world is
         G
just her oyster.

[Pre-Chorus]
   G
As you walk arm in
  Cadd9
arm through every
G                    Cadd9   G7
park while pain and joy stir.

[Chorus]
C         D     G
Who knows when this
      C
life ends? When it
D        G      C
stops or starts again.
      G
 Well If our days are
C                    D
numbered babe, then why
do we keep
Gsus4  G
count? I’ll sit and enjoy
             D
the view I have of
          G
you right now.

[Verse 4]
      G Cadd9     G
I’m a peach (oh!) on
      Cadd9    G
 her lips. The juice
           Cadd9
from every bite of me
    G
 is what she wants to
Cadd9        D  D7
sip and then turn me
     G
 into wine.

[Verse 5]
G            Cadd9
All the Holy Ghosts and
           G
her just say
                 Cadd9
there’s no more time and
          D   D7
what is gold now
   G
is mud.

[Verse 6]
G                  Cadd9
The garden I will grow
             G
from this is what I
     Cadd9
will become, and I’ll
     D  D7           G
be held in pots of clay.

[Pre-Chorus]
G                 Cadd9
Watching from the windowsill
        G
while you go
        Cadd9 G7
on your way.

[Chorus]
    C         D     G
Oh, who knows when this life
  C
ends? When
   D        G      C
it stops or starts again?
      G
Well if our days
    C
are numbered babe,
       D
then why do we keep
Gsus4   G
count? I’ll sit and enjoy
             D
the view, I have of
          G
you right now.

[Outro]
     G
Well if our days
     C
 are numbered babe,
 then
D              Gsus4    G
why do we keep count? I’ll
 sit and enjoy
            D
the view, I have
               G
 of you right now.
Oh-oh-oh

[Outro]
What a peach. What a peach.
