But leav ing just your (Dm)pic ture be hind

When you snap your fin ger or wink your eye, I come a (G)run ning to you.

I’m tied to your (Dm)a pron strings

and there’s noth ing that (F)I can do.

Can’t (Dm)help my self,

I call your name, girl, it starts the flame burn ing in my heart, tear ing it all a part.

No mat ter how I try, my love I can not hide.

’Cause (C)sug ar pie, hon ey bunch, do you know that I’m (G)weak for you.

(C)Sug ar pie, hon ey bunch, do an y thing you (G)ask me to.

Can’t (Dm)help my self, I want you and (F)no bod y else.
