Dm7     Gm7
kinds.......  I said it was a
Dm7       C7

          Dm7
Just remember those bones they get broken
  C7           Dm7
And love is not a token of affection
                  Gm7
It's not even a real thing, it's a word
                  Dm7
So don't you try to but it out with a ring
                 C7
Cause it's a verb, to love someone open up and let them in
     Dm7       Gm7              Am7
Just don't, just don't be afraid to set them free again.


           Gm7
This ain't no heaven, ain't no hell , ain't no in between
              Am7              Gm7
Cause there's just too many faces and places in this world
                    Am7
That I ain't ever seen, I'm gonna keep on keeping on
         Gm7
I'm gonna reap on being strong
       Am7              Gm7
I got my head on, though misconnected. It's alright cause I do it protected


    Am7
I got a day job. I drive a cheap ride
    Gm7
Sounds like I'm gonna be fine
         Am7
You only get one life to learn
       Gm7
There's only so many brain cells that you can burn

  Am7              Gm7
And life can take a turn and take away that you've earned
  Am7               Gm7
And leave you yearning for more, so much more

            Am7           Gm7
Life is gonna leave you yearning for more, more, more
            Am7
Your stomach's gonna be churning
                 Gm7
Wanting more, you're wanting, wanting some more.
    Am7           Gm7
You're wanting some more, more, more d-d-d-o you
Am7    Gm7   Am7       Gm7
want some?     Do you want some?
