C
Usually a drink will do the trick
Take the edge off quick, sitting in the dark
Am7
With a shared cigarette
Seeing eye-to-eye, and heart-to-heart
F
But maybe I'm just getting old
Used to work but now it don't

A long gone drive
Am7
You know the kind where you take a turn and you don't know why
But it clears your mind, a surefire cure

I need something stronger
G
That'll last a little longer

I could use a love song
That takes me back, just like that

When it comes on
To a time when I wouldn't roll my eyes
Am7
At a guy and a girl
G
Who make it work in a world

That for me so far just seems to go so wrong

Yeah I could use, I could use a love song

I could use a love song
That takes me back, just like that
