Alec Benjamin – Settle Down Chords

He set out with a backpack, a compass in hand
To steal Mona Lisa, and that was his plan
A modern day outlaw, he’ll take what he can
And vanish before you, like tracks in the sand

His pockets were full but his heart was so heavy
And all these material things can be deadly if
No one is there who will share when you’re seventy-one

If only someone, filled the spaces
He might settle down

He met her on Tuesday, on his way back from France
He rolled up the painting, he stole with his hands
And even Da Vinci, couldn’t have sketched
A more perfect woman, than the one that he met

His pockets were full but his heart was so heavy
And all these material things can be deadly if
No one is there who will share when you’re seventy-one

If only someone, filled the spaces
He might settle down

Settle down, settle down,
Settle down, settle down.

He woke up in the morning, with nothing around
She left with the portrait, no trace of her found
She was the outlaw, she was the one
She took the bounty, and left him with none

His pockets aren’t full and his heart is still empty
And falling in love, it can be just as deadly
And no one is there who will care when he’s seventy-one

If only someone, filled the spaces
He might settle down, settle down
