♫ Intro:

Dm

♫ Verse 1:
        Dm
We were talking for about 5 minutes,
      Bb
And I promised that I was listening,
       Gm
But he called us a we,
        A
Who the hell is we,

♫ Verse 2:
     Dm
This wasn't love at 1st sight,
    C  Bb
And we won't make it past tonight,
               Gm
He says he's a nice guy,
                  A
So he's certainly not my type,


♫ Pre-Chorus 1:
      Bb*
Cause I see one red flag,
    Bb A*
And I  run right for the hills.


♫ Chorus:
    Dm
Oh, I've been burned one too many times,
Bb
I can't seem to get things right,
              Gm
Now I've been single for so, so long,
             A
That I've forgotten how to write a love song.
         Dm
I am not looking for a prince to save my ass,
         Bb
I'm just looking for an equal with a little sass,
                Gm
Cause I've been single for so, so long,
             A*
That I've forgotten how to write a love song    a love song.


♫ Interlude:
Dm
Ba by ba ba ba da dy da da,
Bb                      Gm
Ba by ba ba ba da dy da da,
                        A
Ba by ba ba ba da dy da da.


♫ Verse 3:
          Dm
I've been on about 15 dates,
         Bb
And they all go the exact same way,
             Gm
He buys me a couple drinks,
       A
But he won't go where he thinks.


♫ Verse 4:
              Dm*
Because after three whole hours of the same Monologue,
C         Bb*
About his 9 to 5, and how he has a dog.
          Gm
He has no clue,
      A
Who I am and what I do.


♫ Pre-Chorus 2:
      Bb*
And I hate to generalize,
 Bb   A*
About all of these damn guys.


♫ Chorus:
    Dm
Oh, I've been burned one too many times,
Bb
I can't seem to get things right,
              Gm
Now I've been single for so, so long,
             A
That I've forgotten how to write a love song.
         Dm
I am not looking for a prince to save my ass,
         Bb
I'm just looking for an equal with a little sass,
                Gm
Cause I've been single for so, so long,
             A*
That I've forgotten how to write a love song.


♫ Bridge:
Bb          C
How does it feel to fall,
F         C            Dm     C       Bb
Head over heels into a cliche romance,
    C                  Dm
The one that makes you wanna dance,
C   Bb          C
Oh, how does it go,
          F    C    Dm
When your eyes lock slow,
        Bb             A
And you know, you just know.


♫ Chorus:
    Dm*
Oh, I've been burned one too many times,
C Bb*
  I can't seem to get things right,
A              Gm*
Now I've been single for so, so long,
Gm   Bb      A*
That I've forgotten how to write a love song.
         Dm
I am not looking for a prince to save my ass,

Cause I've been single for so, so long,
             A*
That I've forgotten how to write a love song    love song.
