Intro: D A E F#m (4x)
OOOooooOOOooo OOO
verse 1: D A E F#m
I don't remember what we said
Or what we did or what we heard
All I know is that I liked it
(OOOooooOOOooo OOO)
You looked good inside my shirt
Dirty hair just like your words
And I know that's how I liked it
(Liked it, Liked it)
Pre-Chorus D x2 (strum once)
Can we do it all
Do it all
Do it all again?
Chorus: D A E F#m
It goes on and on and on
I've been chasin' this love for too long
When will this carousel end?
D A Eb F#m
First you're here
Then you're runnin'
And I know that's what you wanted
D A E F#m
It's wrong chasing love
Chasing love for too long
Chasing Love
Chasing love for too long
verse 2: D A E F#m
Your lips look so good on mine…
It's way too early to go, early to go insiiiide
I’ll drive around this block a million times
Just for you to wonder if I’d walk inside Come inside, come insiiiiide
Pre-Chorus D x4 (strum once)
And we'll do it all
Do it all
Do it all again
And we'll do it all
Do it all
I know I'm more than just pretend
Chorus:
Bridge: D A E F#m x6 (quiet)
There you stand
Here I am
Willing to take your hand
Make it last forever
Chorus:
Outro: D A E F#m x2
