Guitar chords with lyrics

Verse 1:
C/G C/G    F      C/G C/G   F
 So baby,    when I'm near you
    C/G   C/G      F     C/G C/G      F
You can't feel me,    I'm    lightnin'
    C/G     C/G   F
You used to come by
       C/G      C/G     F
And sit down by my side
        C/G  C/G           F
You would    come in close
    C/G      C/G            F
And take off all my clothes


Chorus:
F                                 Gsus2
Every time I think that I've been takin' the steps
C                        F
You end up mad at me for makin' a mess
        F            Gsus2              C
I can't understand why you don't understand me
F

All the ivy

You won't stop it
