Verse 1:
                             B
You think that Cupid's got a bow?
      F
Well, no.
Bbm
Cupid's got a needle.
      B      F
It'll find a vein.
Bbm                                       Ebm
Careful, 'cause you'll bleed a little.

           Ab                Db            Gb
But pretty soon romance will marinate your brain.
Eb             Ab             F
Then watch the temperature go up.

Verse 2:
                              B          F    Bbm
You hardly sleep because your sheets are wet, Toss and turn for hours.
         B        F
And your sweat is sweet,
Bbm
Smells like dying flowers.
        Ebm          Ab             Db             Gb
You got pain in your stomach like a long neglected tooth.
Ebm     Ab          F
Dilated pupils that refuse to see the truth.

Chorus 1:
                  Bbm
And that's you're sick.
You're sick,
Gb                Bbm
You might not get through it.
                                     Gb                   Bbm
Your aching heart is racing and your brain can't catch up to it.
                    Gb          Bbm
That's how you diagnose an overdose of love.

Verse 3:
                             B
You feel the itching on your skin,
     F
Then in,
Bbm
Right down to your skeleton.
    B
You seize,
    F
You freeze,
Bbm
Knees turn into gelatin.
      Ebm            Ab                  Db             Gb
Then, you're on them praying that you'll keep some self respect.
Ebm        Ab            F
But out of nowhere comes another side effect.

Chorus 2:
              Bbm
Like when you see his face,
    Gb              Bbm
You feel it in your eyes -
                             Gb                 Bbm
They start to water like the place between your thighs whenever he gets close.
Gb            Bbm
Thats an overdose of love.

Bridge:
       Gb                  B
You're sick of what you're saying.
       F                   Bbm
You're sick of what you're thinking.
      Gb           B
You'd have another drink,
              F                   Bbm
Except you're sick of what you're drinking.
      Ebm           Ab
While sitting there alone,
Db              Gb
Longing for his touch,
  C7                       F
A little is elixir but too much is much too much.
               Bbm
You're burning up!

Verse 4:
Ebm            Ab           Db            Gb
The spark that started it became a raging fire.
Ebm         Ab                  Db         Gb
The cobwebs in your head turned into razor wire.
Ebm         Ab                 Db            Gb
It's like a puzzle that you'll never get the trick of.
    Ebm            Ab             F
The trick is you admitting you're sick of what you're sick of.

Chorus:
    Bbm
You feel it on your tongue.
    Gb              Bbm
You feel it in your lips.
    Bbm                              Gb
You feel it from your fingers to the thing between your hips.
    Bbm
You collapse on the floor,
    Gb
You shudder,
You tingle.
    Bbm
The paramedic comes,
You wonder if he's single.

Chorus:
        Bbm
You are sick, sick, sick!
       Gb         Bbm
You're falling to pieces.
        Bbm                  Gb               Bbm
And the curse is the cure is worse than the disease is.
        Bbm
You're dead,
You're toast,
       Gb   F    Bbm  F Db Bbm
You're overdosed on love.
Gb          Bb        F
You're overdosed on love.
Bbm         F        Bbm
You are overdosed on love.
Gb        F    Bbm
Baby, you are sick
