[Verse]
D A
E third party at a table for two
Bm D
I'm sorry, I don't mean to intrude
G Em D
But it was me and you before you met her.
D A
All the love songs you wrote for me,
Bm D
(You) stuck her name where mine used to be
G Em D A
But my name in them fit the rhythm better.
[Pre-Chorus]
Bm
I'd go if you had a ride
G
I'd smoke if you had a light
Em A A7
I fall every time for this.
[Chorus]
E B C#m
But love is trippy like that
B A
Sometimes you think that you've got it
E A B
Nobody's gonna trick you out of this one baby.
E B C#m
But love will slip through your hands.
B A E
You never know how to hold it, control it,
A B D A Bm D G Em D
Your gripping is tripping you up.
[Verse]
D A
Says the woman who sings at the bar
Bm D
This is for you, you know who you are
G Em D
I was you once, looking for someone I never found.
D A
She paints in a low smoky voice
Bm D
Pictures of bruises, bad days and boys
G Em D A
And how they stood her up just to let her down.
[Pre-Chorus]
Bm
She'd win if you were the prize,
G
Gives in to all of your lies,
Em A A7
She'd fall every time for this.
[Chorus]
E B C#m
But love is trippy like that
B A
Sometimes you think that you've got it
E A B
Nobody's gonna trick you out of this one baby.
E B C#m
But love will slip through your hands.
B A E
You never know how to hold it, control it,
A B D A Bm D G Em D
Your gripping is tripping you up.
[Verse]
D A
All of the girls who feel like they're
Bm D
Overdressed, undersexed, starving for yesses or
G Em D
Maybes, tired of always being ignored.
D A
You might see the available chair
Bm D
Beside me, the invitation is there
G Em D A
But I'm not the kind of scratch he's itching for.
[Pre-Chorus]
Bm
And I'd go if you had a ride
G
And I'd smoke if you had a light
Em A A7
I fall every time for this.
[Chorus]
E B C#m
But love is trippy like that
B A
Sometimes you think that you've got it
E A B
Nobody's gonna trick you out of this one baby.
E B C#m
But love will slip through your hands.
B A E
You never know how to hold it, control it,
A B D A Bm D G Em D
Your gripping is tripping you up.
D A Bm D G Em D (x2)
