Oh, sweet heart, put the bot tle down.
You’ve got too much tal ent.
I see you through those blood shot eyes.
There’s a cure; you’ve found it.
Slow mo tion, sparks, you’ve caught that chill.
Now don’t de ny it.
But boys will be boys, oh, yes, they will;
they don’t wan na de fine it.
Just (A5)give up the game and get in to me.
If you’re (F#7)look ing for thrills, then get cold feet.
(E5)Oh, no, I (E)do (A5)not hook (E5)up, up; I (E)go (A5)slow.
So (C#5)if you want me, I (F#5)don’t come cheap.
Keep your (A5)hand in my hand and your heart on your (B5)sleeve.
(E5)Oh, no, I (E)do (A5)not hook (E5)up, up; I (E)fall (A5)deep.
’Cause the more that you (F#5)try, the hard er I’ll fight to say
good night.
I can’t cook, no, but I can clean
up the mess she left.
Lay your head down and feel the beat,
as I kiss your fore head.
This may not last, but this is now,
so love the one you’re with.
You wan na chase, but you’re chas ing your tail.
A quick (F#7)fix won’t ev er get you well.
’Cause I feel the dis tance be tween
(F#m)us could be (C#m)o ver
with a (A)snap of your (F#)fin ger,
oh, no.
(E5)Oh, no, I (E)do (A5)not hook (E5)up, up; I (E)go (A5)slow.
So (C#5)if you want me, I (F#5)don’t come cheap.
Keep your (A5)hand in my hand and your heart on your (B5)sleeve.
(E5)Oh, no, I (E)do (A5)not hook (E5)up, up; I (E)fall (A5)deep.
’Cause the more that you (F#5)try, the hard er I’ll fight to say...
’Cause the more that you (F#5)try, the hard er I’ll fight to say...
fight to say
(B5)good night.
Oh, sweet heart, put the bot tle down,
’cause you don’t wan na miss out.
