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