Q.O.T.S.A. on the hi-fi, we were talking via wi-fi.

but when he said, "I love you, girl," it should have come with a warning.

He said, "I gotta go, go, go, 'cause it hurts to feel.
           A

            C#m          B    E
And I could try, try, try to stay in the fight,
        B       A        E
but when push comes to shove,
           B   A       E

In the afternoons, when we lay like spoons,
G#                        C#m
