G D
She's a very affectionate girl
G D A
That's all she knows how to be
Bm G D
She loves beyond all reason
A Bm
And I hold her like a thief
G D
With a vengeance she embraces me
G D A
And tonight vengeance is mine
Bm G
But I swear she is no plaything
A D
She is precious in God's sight
G D
She's a very affectionate girl
G D A
The way she holds my hand
Bm G D
Like she can feel every drop of water
A Bm
And every grain of sand
G F#
And she just wants me to lead her
G D A
And she doesn't care how far
Bm G D
She'd buy any line I'd feed her
A D
Like it was written in the stars
G D
A Bm7/D
She's a very affectionate girl

(The rest of the lyrics, following the above pattern:)
She's a very affectionate girl
When her fingers touch my lips
And she tells me not to worry
To consider this a gift
It's beyond a point of honor
It is more than I should take
For it was not the law of averages
That made her heart that way
She's a very affectionate girl
She's a very affectionate girl
And she comes as a surprise
In this age of broken promises
And so many poisoned lives
Where people keep their distance
And keep their hands to themselves
She says she only wants to kiss me
And that is something she does well
She's a very affectionate girl
