[Verse]
F# C#
G# third party at a table for two
D#m F#
I'm sorry, I don't mean to intrude
B G#m F#
But it was me and you before you met her.
F# C#
All the love songs you wrote for me,
D#m F#
(You) stuck her name where mine used to be
B G#m F# C#
But my name in them fit the rhythm better.
[Pre-Chorus]
D#m
I'd go if you had a ride
B
I'd smoke if you had a light
G#m C# C#7
I fall every time for this.
[Chorus]
G# D# Fm
But love is trippy like that
D# C#
Sometimes you think that you've got it
G# C# D#
Nobody's gonna trick you out of this one baby.
G# D# Fm
But love will slip through your hands.
D# C# G#
You never know how to hold it, control it,
C# D# F# C# D#m F# B G#m F#
Your gripping is tripping you up.
[Verse]
F# C#
Says the woman who sings at the bar
D#m F#
This is for you, you know who you are
B G#m F#
I was you once, looking for someone I never found.
F# C#
She paints in a low smoky voice
D#m F#
Pictures of bruises, bad days and boys
B G#m F# C#
And how they stood her up just to let her down.
[Pre-Chorus]
D#m
She'd win if you were the prize,
B
Gives in to all of your lies,
G#m C# C#7
She'd fall every time for this.
[Chorus]
G# D# Fm
But love is trippy like that
D# C#
Sometimes you think that you've got it
G# C# D#
Nobody's gonna trick you out of this one baby.
G# D# Fm
But love will slip through your hands.
D# C# G#
You never know how to hold it, control it,
C# D# F# C# D#m F# B G#m F#
Your gripping is tripping you up.
[Verse]
F# C#
All of the girls who feel like they're
D#m F#
Overdressed, undersexed, starving for yesses or
B G#m F#
Maybes, tired of always being ignored.
F# C#
You might see the available chair
D#m F#
Beside me, the invitation is there
B G#m F# C#
But I'm not the kind of scratch he's itching for.
[Pre-Chorus]
D#m
And I'd go if you had a ride
B
And I'd smoke if you had a light
G#m C# C#7
I fall every time for this.
[Chorus]
G# D# Fm
But love is trippy like that
D# C#
Sometimes you think that you've got it
G# C# D#
Nobody's gonna trick you out of this one baby.
G# D# Fm
But love will slip through your hands.
D# C# G#
You never know how to hold it, control it,
C# D# F# C# D#m F# B G#m F#
Your gripping is tripping you up.
F# C# D#m F# B G#m F# (x2)
