D    D13th         Em        Em7
Nina I can be your boyfriend
D          D13th          Em         Em7
so you can stay with your girlfriend
D    D13th                 Em
Your father is a sweet old man
                   Em7
but it is hard for him to understand
F#m      F#m7          Em        Em7
that you wanna love a woman

Nina I can be your boyfriend
if it puts an end to all this nonsens
First time I see you in Berlin
And you don't tell me anyting
Until outside your dad's apartment

D       D13th
Oh God, Jesus Christ
Em                Em7
I try to focus on your eyes
D                             D13th
we're having dinner with your family now
Em                         Em7
keep a steady look at your left eyebrow
D                        D13th
If it's raised, it means yes,
Em                   Em7
If it's not it means take a guess
D              D13th
Hey! You! Stop kicking my legs
Em                 Em7
I'm doing my best, can you pass the eggs

Your father puts on my record
he says: so tell me how you met her
I get embarrassed and change the subject
and put my hand on some metal object
He laughs and says that's a lie detector

He takes out the booklet and starts reading
So I heard you're moving out next season
I say: Yeah, New York is nice that time of year
Almost as green as it is here
He says: I thought you were moving to Sweden?

Oh God, what have I done?
I came to Berlin to have some fun
Then it turned into Buffalo '66
on your fathers wall a big crucifix
guess thats why he wont let u go
his catholic heart is big and slow
you know I'll do anything for love
but Nina what were you thinking of?

But Nina I can be your boyfriend
So you can stay with your girlfriend
Your father is mailing me all the time
He says he just wants to say hi
I send back "out of office, auto-replies"

Nina I just want to check in
'cause I think about you every second
So I send you this postcard just to say
Don't let anyone stand in your way
Yours truly, Jens Lekman

Don't let anyone stand in your way
Don't let anyone stand in your way
Don't let anyone stand in your way
Don't let anyone stand in your way
