You know they got pills for ills and thrills and even spills

Regardless of love and hate
       C#7
And I'm gonna sit up in your bed, mama
      B     A    F#
And just a grin right in your face
          C#7
And then I'm gonna eat up all your chocolates,
  A   B    A    F#
and say "I hope I'm not too late”

Questions in your mind
      F#13
Give it or take,

And I swear I see nothing but a lot of frowns
    C#7        B  A  F#
And I'm wondering if they want me around
