hearts to break and bodies to hold.

Time will tell but it never gets old.

A match made in heaven, not a scratch on her face.

Cm
Ahh people try to tell me what not to do,
               Am

           Am
I tried to tell 'em that I found a pearl, well...

Even you never had my back.

She was the cutest thing that I ever did see.

A drink in her hand and I don't mean tea.
               Cm
She was with a dude, but I just didn't care.

I had to find out, these moments are rare.
                  F                              G#            A#

Pre-Chorus 2:
Cm                                               Am
Well I guess I never told you some things that I really, really wanted to say.
Cm                                         Am                       
Did I do everything I could do, or did the mice just need to play?
F                       G#                  A#
Like I told you there's more than meets the eye.

Cm                                            Am    
But when it comes to the punishment, girl you know how to bring the pain.
F                   G#        A#
Like I told you I'd do it all again.
