[G]I make you feel a [Am]way you've never felt before
[G]And I'm all [A]you need and [Am]that you never want more
[G]Then you'd say all of [Am]the right things without a clue

[Em]Seems I love [C]the things you do
[Em]Like the meaner you treat [C]me more eager I am
[Em]To persist [A]with this [C]heartbreak of running around
[G]And I will [A]do until I [Am]find myself with you and
[G]Make you feel a [Am]way you've never felt before
[Em]And be all [A]you need so [C]that you'll never want more
