[Verse 1]
D
Shaking in the forest, what have you to fear?
D
Here there may be tigers to punch you in the ear
G A
Gloves of stainless steel, bats carved out of brick
D G
Knock you down and beat you up and give your ass a kick
D A D
When push comes to shove, you're afraid of love
[Verse 2]
D
Shaking in the desert, wherefore do you cry?
D
Here there may be rattlesnakes to punch you in the eye
G A
With shotguns full of silver and bullets made of glass,
D G
String barbed wire at your feet that do not let you pass
D A D
When push comes to shove, you're afraid of love
[Chorus]
G A
When push comes to shove
D B
When push comes to shove
E A D
You're afraid of love when push comes to shove

[Verse 3]
D
Shaking in the bedroom, covers on your head
D
Cringing like a baby at the hand beneath the bed
G A
Phantom in the closet, scratching at the door
D G
The latest mystery killer you saw on channel four
D A D
When push comes to shove, you're afraid of love
[Verse 4]
D
Shaking in the garden, the fear within you grows
D
Here there may be roses to punch you in the nose
G A
Twist their arms around you, slap you 'til you cry
D G
Wrap you in their sweet perfume and love you 'til you die
D A D
When push comes to shove, you're afraid of love
[Chorus]
G A
When push comes to shove
D B
When push comes to shove
E A D
You're afraid of love when push comes to shove
G A
When push comes to shove

When push comes to shove
E A D
You're afraid of love when push comes to shove
