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