Intro: Em7, G,   C(add9)} 2X
Em7Oh, sweetheart pGut the bottle downC(add9),
you've got too much talent
Em7I see you thrGough those bloodshot C(add9)eyes
There's a cure, you've found it
Em7Slow motion sparks, Gyou've caught that chC(add9)ill,
now don't deny it
But Em7girls will be gGirls, oh, yes they wilC(add9)l
And they don't wanna define it
                     Em7  D(sus9)   C(add9)  
Just give up the game and get into me
                               Em7  D(sus9)
If you're looking for thrills then get cold feet
And Goh no, I do not hook
C(add9)up up, I go slow
               Em7  D(sus9)
So if you want me I don't come cheap
Keep your C(add9)head on my hand and your heart on your sleeve
And Goh no, I do not hook
C(add9)up up, I fall deep
'Cause the mEm7ore that you try
    D(sus9)             C(add9)  
the harder I'll fight to say goodnight
Em7I can't cook, Gno but I can cleanC(add9)  
up the mess she left down
Em7Lay your head doGwn and feel the beatC(add9)  
as I kiss your forehead
This Em7may not last Gbut this is nowC(add9)  
baby love the one you're with
You wEm7anna chase but you're chGasin' your tail
A C(add9)quick fix won't ever D/F#get you well
But oh no, I do not hook
up up, I go slow
Baby if you want me I don't come cheap
Keep your head on my hand and your heart on your sleeve
Cause oh no, I do not hook
up up, I fall deep
'Cause the more that you try
the harder I'll fight to say...
'Cause I fEm7eel the C(add9)distance betwGeen D/F#us
Could be oEm7ver.C(add9).. with the snGap of your fD/F#inger...
Oh no, I do not hook
up up, I go slow
And if you want me I don't come cheap
Keep your head on my hand and your heart on your sleeve
Oh no, I do not hook
up up, I fall deep
And the more that you try
