            G                                       Am
I bet you'd pick it up and mess around with it if I put it down

        Bm
It gets extremely complicated

Anything to forget everything

I know exactly what you're thinking

          D                       D7
You won't say it now, but in your heart it's love
[Chorus]
    G       Em                  Am
"Oh no, my feelings are more important than yours

Oh, drop dead, I don't care, I won't worry," there you go

At times it's not that complicated

D                  D7

He would never talk but he was not shy

          G                         Am
She was a street-smart girl but she could not lie

          Bm                      D
They were perfect for each other, say it now

'Cause in your heart it's love

I don't wanna know, I don't wanna know

Tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me, no, don't, okay
