I know she's gEonna strike like lightning
if I stand out in the rain
she's gonna gF#et me again
and I knBow, cos' it shB7ows
You know she only gets more pleasure
if I can't stand all the pain
she's gonna drive me insane
and I know, yes I know
That it's Afine anytime
I don't mEind I can see
runnin' Awild running free
that's the tEhing, you and me
and we wBon't change a thing
no we wEon't change a thing
I don't mBind, you don't mind,
we don't mEind
|E| |E| |E| |E|
|E| |E| |E| |E|
I know she's gonna keep me guessing
just when I'm thinking I know
there ain't nothing to show
but I'm sure there is more
Don't think I don't know how to break it
still I'm just playing the game
it's bound to drive me insane
and I know oh I know
But it's fine anytime
I don't mind I can see
runnin' wild running free
that's the thing, you and me
and we won't change a thing
no we won't change a thing
I don't mind, you don't mind,
we don't mind
|E| |E| |E| |E|
But it's fAine anytime
I don't mEind I can see
and we wBon't change a thing
no we wEon't change a thing
I don't mBind, you don't mind,
we don't mEind
