Rowboat... lightning...

I kissed her, yeah, it didn't mean a thing

Don't hang around long face disease
                                           G
I got a book of poems that's gonna set you free

[CHORUS]

Well it's bad luck 
           A

And I'm sorry I ain't sticking around

I got nightmares every night

Not the kind of place you wanna settle down
                                         G
I only walked her home but that was bad enough

[VERSE]

Two trains... yell freeze... 
                 G                      F#
It was a head-on cold now it's a love disease
                                         G
I got a book of poems you gotta see to believe
