[Verso 1]
F Dm
You can swim with the tide,
Gm7 C7
you can make like a stone
F Dm
And just wait for the water
Gm7 C7
to carry you home

Gm7 C7
you've been fairly warned:
F Dm
Where there's lightning
Gm7 C7
there's likely a storm

It's nobody's business
Gm7 C7
what business you're in
F Dm
You can do as you please,
Gm7 C7
even try to forget

That nothing kills
Gm7 C7
quite like regret

with a love song

that tune's been on

figured out and what's more

You can loose your way
Gm7 C7
and still get where you're goin'
F Dm
You can hurt those you love
Gm7 C7
without knowin'
[Verso 4]
F Dm
You can hide in the hedge,
Gm7 C7
you can stand on the fence
F Dm
Go ahead and dream a dream
Gm7 C7
that don't make any sense
F Dm
You can go out tonight
Gm7 C7
and come back in the morn
F Dm
And knock 'til
Gm7 C7
your knuckles are sore
F D7
But you can't trust a man
Gm C7
with a love song
F D7
You don't know how many lips
Gm C7
that tune's been on

He'll just change the words

once you're singin' along

with a love... song
