[Intro: Axl Rose]

Ooh, ah

Ah

[Refrain: Axl Rose & Duff McKagan]

How could she look so fine?

How could it be, she might be mine?

How could she be so cool?

I've been taken for a fool, so many times, hey


[Verse 1: Duff McKagan]

It's a story of a man, works as hard as he can

Just to be a man who stands on his own

But the book always burns as the story takes its turn

And leaves a broken man

[Refrain: Axl Rose & Duff McKagan]

How could she be so cool? Ah

How could she be so fine?

I owe a favor to a friend

My friends, they always come through for me, yeah


[Verse 2: Duff McKagan]

Story of a man, works as hard as he can

Just to be a man who stands on his own

But the book always burns as the story takes its turn

And leaves a broken man

If you could only live my life, you would see the difference

You make to me, to me


[Chorus: Duff McKagan]

I'd look right up at night

And all I'd see was darkness

Now, I see the stars, alright

I wanna reach right up and grab one for you

When the lights went down in your house

Yeah, that made me happy

The sweat I make for you

Yeah, I think you know where that comes from

Guitar, come on


[Guitar Solo]


[Chorus: Duff McKagan]

Yeah, when I look right up at night

And all I'd see was darkness

Now, I see the stars, alright

I wanna reach right up and grab one for you

When the lights went down in your house

Yeah, that made me happy

The sweat I make for you

I think you know where that comes from


[Refrain: Axl Rose]

How could she look so good? So good

How could she be so fine?

How could she be so cool?

How could it be, she might be mine?

Yeah
