Get out of the car - put down the phone

Em C Em A :|

take off that stupid looking hat you wear

I'm gonna die if you touch me one more time

well I guess that I'm gonna die no matter what

Love people are there

D / A G

the smell of love is everywhere

you think it's always sensitive and good

you think that I want to be understood

Em / Bm G / A D -

I've got a match - your embrace and my collapse

2.

Beat up the cat if you want someone else on the mat

I put a rock in the coffee in your coffee mug

which one of us is the one that we can't trust?

you say that I think it's you but I don't agree with that

Love people are there

D / A G

the smell of love is everywhere

why can't you be sensitive and good

why don't you want to be understood?

Em / Bm G / A D / A G / A

I've got a match - your embrace and my collapse - even when we get along

Em / Bm G / A D

I've got a match - your embrace and my collapse
