G

[Verse 1]
G
Well, you know how it goes

When you meet somebody

That you like somebody
G
Wanna hold somebody

But you just can't stand

To think about somebody

As another somebody
                 C
Becoming someone else
                    G
When it all goes to hell

[Chorus]
                            D
Why can't we keep it on the sweet side?
                           C        Bb
See how it feels to take a slow ride
         G
This time

[Verse 2]
G
So you try to run away from the one somebody

That you like somebody

Wanna hold somebody

But you can't stay away from the one somebody
                                                   C
Cause there ain't nobody else running through your dreams
                       G
So we complicate things

[Chorus]
                            D
Why can't we keep it on the sweet side?
                           C        Bb
See how it feels to take a slow ride
         Gm7 G
This time

[Solo]
G

[Bridge]
D
You don't need to meet my mama

You don't need the key to my house
C
We don't need to dream and plan and scheme
                                Bb
Ain't nothing here to figure out

[Verse 3]
G
Wouldn't it be nice just to find somebody?

That you like somebody

Wanna hold somebody

And you didn't have to worry about losing somebody
                                                  C
Cause you pushed somebody, a little too hard, too fast
                    G
I could use some of that

[Chorus]
                        D
I wanna get back on the sweet side
                        C
I wanna get back on the slow ride
                           D
Want every kiss to give me butterflies
                 C                          Bb
See that o, baby come here look in your eyes
         Gm G
This time
