Intro: Am, C, Em, D MajorD


      A minorAm                C majorC
If you're rubbing sticks together you'll be getting a spark
 E minorEm            D MajorD
Inevitably I'll be in your arms after dark
     A minorAm            C majorC
Each and every time I see you, it's just as hard to leave you
    E minorEm    D MajorD
As the last time
   A minorAm             C majorC
So we come to a decision, draw a line in the sand
  E minorEm                  D MajorD
And stand on different sides yet I reach out for your hand
A minorAm           C majorC
Oh baby I miss you, if only I could kiss you
      E minorEm     D MajorD
Just this last time

      A minorAm  C majorC
But I can't finish
      E minorEm  D MajorD
What we've started
  A minorAm     C majorC
The heart breaks
        E minorEm D MajorD
Way before the habit
      A minorAm
And if you don't quit,
    C majorC
You'll never get over
    E minorEm
If you don't quit
    D MajorD
You'll never get out
      A minorAm  C majorC
And you're always
      E minorEm  D MajorD
Gonna be an addict
  A minorAm    C majorC
The heart breaks
        E minorEm D MajorD
Way before the habit

A minorAm                   C majorC
Once it hits your lips you know you're gonna have more
E minorEm                  D MajorD
Coursing through the blood and coming out of your pores
A minorAm             C majorC
There's no use in fighting, almost as inviting
    E minorEm   D MajorD
As the first time

      A minorAm  C majorC
But I can't finish
      E minorEm  D MajorD
What we've started
  A minorAm     C majorC
The heart breaks
        E minorEm D MajorD
Way before the habit
      A minorAm
And if you don't quit,
    C majorC
You'll never get over
    E minorEm
If you don't quit
    D MajorD
You'll never get out
      A minorAm  C majorC
And you're always
      E minorEm  D MajorD
Gonna be an addict
  A minorAm    C majorC
The heart breaks
        E minorEm D MajorD
Way before the habit


  A minorAm         C majorC         E minorEm    D MajorD
And I don't think that we should see each other anymore
  A minorAm       C majorC         E minorEm         D MajorD
You keep on going 'round in circles, back to where we've been before
  A minorAm          C majorC
And now you're standing at my door
  E minorEm    D MajorD
I'm not so sure


      A minorAm
That if you don't quit
    C majorC
You'll never get over
    E minorEm
If you don't quit
    D MajorD
You'll never get out
    A minorAm
If you don't quit
    C majorC
You'll never get over
    E minorEm
If you don't quit
    D MajorD
You'll never get out


      A minorAm  C majorC
But I can't finish
      E minorEm  D MajorD
What we've started
  A minorAm     C majorC
The heart breaks
        E minorEm D MajorD
Way before the habit
      A minorAm
And if you don't quit,
    C majorC
You'll never get over
    E minorEm
If you don't quit
    D MajorD
You'll never get out
      A minorAm  C majorC
And you're always
      E minorEm  D MajorD
Gonna be an addict
  A minorAm    C majorC
The heart breaks
        E minorEm D MajorD
Way before the habit


     A minorAm C majorC
Till you finish
      E minorEm  D MajorD
What we've started
  A minorAm     C majorC
The heart breaks
        E minorEm D MajorD
Way before the habit
      A minorAm
And if you don't quit,
    C majorC
You'll never get over
    E minorEm
If you don't quit
    D MajorD
You'll never get out
      A minorAm  C majorC
And you're always
      E minorEm  D MajorD
Gonna be an addict
  A minorAm    C majorC
The heart breaks
        E minorEm D MajorD
Way before the habit
