[Verse 1]
D
The moon is high
D
Like your friends were the night that we first met
D A Bm
Went home and tried to stalk you on the internet
A
Now I've read all of the books beside your bed
D
The wine is cold
D
Like the shoulder that I gave you in the street
D A Bm
Cat and mouse for a month or two or three
A
Now I wake up in the night and watch you breathe
[Pre-Chorus 1]
D
(Ay!) Kiss me once 'cause you know I had a long night
D D A
(Oh!) Kiss me twice 'cause it's gonna be alright
Bm
(Uh!) Three times 'cause I've waited my whole life
A
N.C.
(1, 2, 1, 2, 3, 4)
[Chorus 1]
D
I like shiny things, but I'd marry you with paper rings
G A
Uh-huh, that's right, darling, you're the one I want
D
And I hate accidents except when we went from friends to this
G A
Uh-huh, that's right, darling, you're the one I want
[Post-Chorus 1]
D D A Bm
In paper rings, in picture frames, in dirty dreams
A
Ah-oh, you're the one I want
[Verse 2]
D
In the winter in the icy outdoor pool
A Bm
When you jumped in first, I went in too
A
I'm with you even if it makes me blue
D
Which takes me back
To the color that we painted your brother's wall
A Bm
Honey, without all the exes, fights and flaws
A
We wouldn't be standing here so tall, so
[Pre-Chorus 2]
D
(Ay!) Kiss you once 'cause I know you had a long night
D D A
(Oh!) Kiss you twice 'cause it's gonna be alright
Bm
(Uh!) Three times 'cause you've waited your whole life
N.C.
(1, 2, 1, 2, 3, 4)
Ahhh
[Chorus 2]
D
I like shiny things, but I'd marry you with paper rings
G A
Uh-huh, that's right, darling, you're the one I want
D
And I hate accidents except when we went from friends to this
G A
Uh-huh, that's right, darling, you're the one I want
[Post-Chorus 2]
D D A Bm
In paper rings, in picture frames, in dirty dreams
A
Ah-oh, you're the one I want
[Bridge]
E
I want to drive away with you
A
I want your complications too
I want your dreary Mondays
B E
Wrap your arms around me, baby boy
I want to drive away with you
A
I want your complications too
I want your dreary Mondays
B E
Wrap your arms around me, baby boy
A B
Uh-huh
[Chorus 3]
E
I like shiny things but I'd marry you with paper rings
A B
Ah huh, that's right, you're the one I want
E
I hate accidents except when we went from friends to this
A B
Ah huh, darling, you're the one I want
E
I like shiny things but I'd marry you with paper rings
A B
Ah-huh, that's right, darling, you're the one I want
E
And I hate accidents except when we went from friends to this
A B
Ah-huh, that's right, darling, you're the one I want
E A
In paper rings, in picture frames, in all my dreams
B
You're the one I want
E A
In paper rings, in picture frames, in all my dreams
B
Ah-oh, you're the one I want
[Outro]

You're the one I want, the one I want
