G C

I was watching, with one eye on the other side,

D G

I had fifteen people telling me to move, I got movin’ on my mind.

G C

I found shelter, in some dolls turning wheels around,

D G

I've said 39 times that I love u to the beauty I have found.

G

Well it's, one, two, three, four, take the elevator,

C D

at the hotel Yorba I'll be glad to see you later,

G D G

all they got inside is vacancy

G C

I've been thinking, by a little place down by the lake

D

They've got a dirty old road leading up to the house

G

I wonder how long it will take

G

till we're alone,

C

sitting on a front porch of that home

D

Stompin our feet, on the wooden boards,

G

Never gotta worry about locking the door

G

Well its, one, two, three, four, take the elevator,

C D

at the hotel Yorba I'll be glad to see you later,

G D G

all they got inside is vacancy

(---Bridge start---)

G C

It might sound silly, for me to think childish thoughts like these

D G

But I'm so tired of acting tough, and I gonna do what I please.

(---Bridge end---)

G C

Let's get married in a big cathedral by a priest

D

because if I'm the man that you love the most,

G

You could say I do at least.

G

Well its, one, two, three, four, take the elevator,

C D

at the hotel Yorba I'll be glad to see you later,

G

all they got inside is vacancy

G

And it's four, five six, seven, grab the umbrella,

C D

And grab hold of me cause I’m your favourite fella,

G D G C G

All they got inside is vacancy

Verse 1

[G]

Well I’m finding it harder

[A#] [F] [G] [F][G]

to be a gentleman every day

[A#] [F]

All the manners that I’ve been taught

[G] [F][G]

have slowly died away

[F]

But if I held the door open for you

[G]

it would make your day

Verse 2

[G][F][G]

[G]

You think that I care

[A#] [F] [G] [F][G]

about me and only me

[A#] [F]

When every single girl needs help

[G] [F][G]

climbing up a tree

[F]

Well I know I don’t take much

[G]

to satisfy me

Chorus

Verse 3

[C] [A#]

Maybe it’s whatever’s in my hand

[G]

that’s distracting me

[A#]

But if I could find emotion

[C]

to stimulate devotion

[D]

well then you’d see

Chorus

Verse 4

Well I’m finding it hard to say

that I need you twenty times a day

I feel comfortable so baby why

don’t you feel the same?

Have a doctor come visit us

and tell us which one is sane

Verse 5

Well I never said I wouldn’t

throw my jacket in the mud for you

but my father gave it to me so

maybe I should carry you

then you said

“you almost dropped me”

so then I did

and I got mud on my shoes

Lyrics:

Fell in love with a girl

fell in love once and almost completely

she's in love with the world

but sometimes these feelings

can be so misleading

she turns and says are you alright?

I said I must be fine cause my heart's still beating

come and kiss me by the riverside,

bobby says it's fine he don't consider it cheating

Red hair with a curl

mellow roll for the flavor

and the eyes were peeping

can't keep away from the girl

these two sides of my brain

need to have a meeting

can't think of anything to do

my left brain knows that

all love is fleeting

she's just looking for something new

and I said it once before

but it bears repeating

Can't think of anything to do

my left brain knows that

all love is fleeting

she's just looking for something new

and I said it once before

but it bears repeating

Fell in love with a girl

fell in love once and almost completely

she's in love with the world

but sometimes these feelings

can be so misleading

she turns and says are you alright?

I said I must be fine cause my heart's still beating

come and kiss me by the riverside,

bobby says it's fine he don't consider it cheating

Can't think of anything to do

my left brain knows that

all love is fleeting

she's just looking for something new

and I said it once before

but it bears repeating
