[Verse 1]
She yelled, "TD#ell Jesus he's a fucking loser,
The Cmwedding went better than the pG#arty with the city boozers"
Learnt you caD#n't take photos of the stars
The Cmcops will drive you home if yoG#u're too drunk to start the car
Drove through D#late night highways soaked in heavy cloud
GripCmped your leg a little tighter G#when we started spinning out
Sat motionlesD#s across both lanes,
I loCmoked at you and said, "IG#t's OK! we're OK!"
[Chorus]
D#I wanna kiss you on the mouth
FmA little bit too hard
G#It took years to figure out
A#Who we actually are
G#Woo
[Verse 2]
Don't play D#two shots around here, mate
Pub Cmrules are you deal with whG#oever you've decided to play
Juddy got D#back from visiting his cousin in jail
But Cmhis cousin G#had escaped
You said you D#didn't want anyone to talk
And I Cmsuggested you stopG#ped being so goddamn memorable
Slowly turneD#d around in a muddy clearing
One dCmay back towardG#s the mountain
One sCmtep closer to G#disappearing and I said:
[Chorus]
D#I wanna kiss you on the mouth
FmA little bit too hard
G#It took years to figure out
A#Who we actually are
D#I wanna kiss you on the mouth
FmA little bit too hard
[Verse 3]
And pD#ack a bag for the city
SometCmimes coming home feG#els more like leaving
SatelD#lites and magnets
PaCmtience anG#d sleep
And ID#'m staring down the barrel
ACmnd you loG#ok so good
[Bridge]
Toward the fire we will go
Dumb kids on a country road
Payday beers are drunk and thrown
Into next fortnight's overflow
Despite my deeply seeded doubts
Still wanna kiss you on the mouth
[Chorus]
D#I wanna kiss you on the mouth
FmA little bit too hard
G#It took years to figure out
A#Who we actually are
D#I wanna kiss you on the mouth
FmA little bit too hard

[Verse 1]

She yelled, "Tell Jesus he's a fucking loser,

Cm G#

The wedding went better than the party with the city boozers"

Learnt you can't take photos of the stars

Cm G#

The cops will drive you home if you're too drunk to start the car

Drove through late night highways soaked in heavy cloud

Cm G#

Gripped your leg a little tighter when we started spinning out

Sat motionless across both lanes,

Cm G#

I looked at you and said, "It's OK! we're OK!"

[Chorus]

I wanna kiss you on the mouth

A little bit too hard

It took years to figure out

Who we actually are

Woo

[Verse 2]

Don't play two shots around here, mate

Cm G#

Pub rules are you deal with whoever you've decided to play

Juddy got back from visiting his cousin in jail

Cm G#

But his cousin had escaped

You said you didn't want anyone to talk

Cm G#

And I suggested you stopped being so goddamn memorable

Slowly turned around in a muddy clearing

Cm G#

One day back towards the mountain

Cm G#

One step closer to disappearing and I said:

[Chorus]

I wanna kiss you on the mouth

A little bit too hard

It took years to figure out

Who we actually are

I wanna kiss you on the mouth

A little bit too hard

[Verse 3]

And pack a bag for the city

Cm G#

Sometimes coming home feels more like leaving

Satellites and magnets

Cm G#

Patience and sleep

And I'm staring down the barrel

Cm G#

And you look so good

[Bridge]

Toward the fire we will go

Dumb kids on a country road

Payday beers are drunk and thrown

Into next fortnight's overflow

Despite my deeply seeded doubts

Still wanna kiss you on the mouth

[Chorus]

I wanna kiss you on the mouth

A little bit too hard

It took years to figure out

Who we actually are

I wanna kiss you on the mouth

A little bit too hard
