Well everyone, this is a great song (apparently - i don'tknow for sure)originally by a
band called Modern English. It's a great song and a few other people have done covers:
Mest, Jason Mraz, etc. A few adlibs and stuff are left out because i thought is was
pretty unnecessary but it's very accurate.

Being friends with you was never second best

Never really knowing it was always mesh and lace
Chorus:
C F
I’ll stop the world and melt with you
C F
You’ve seen the difference and it’s getting better all the time
C F
There’s nothing you and I won’t do
C F
I’ll stop the world and melt with you
