This was originally transcribed by [email protected], but I wanted a version that was easier to read using a capo and transcribed completely, not relying on memorization. Full credit to litgo, partial to me. ;) [Chords] A x02220 D xx0232 E 022100 F#m 244222 Em 022000 Fmaj7 xx3210 Am x02210 F* x33210 Asus2* 002200 C x32010 G 320033 B x24442 G#m 466444 F# 244322 [Intro]

[Verse 1]
A                              D                    E
I call you on the telephone my voice too rough with cigarettes

A                                              D
I sometimes feel I should just go home but I'm dealing with a memory that

I want those feeble minded axes overthrown

A                                   D                E
I'm not into your passport picture, I just like your nose

A                        D             E
You welcome me with open arms and open legs

A                                D              E
I know only fools have needs but this one never begs

F#m                                   Em
I don't really mind how much you love me

                   G
Oh a little is all right

         D                           Fmaj7
When you say come over and spend the night

A         Asus2*    E
Tonight   Tonight

Cut you like a knife
[Bridge]
F            C
I lay on the bed with you

G                  A
We could make some book of records

F              C
Your dog keeps licking my nose

    G                    B              F#m E
And chewing up all those letters saying you better

Bm            Bm  F#m  E

You better love me

[Verse 3]
A                                 D                E
I showed up late one night with a neon light for a visa

A                                            D                 E
But knowing I'm so eager to fight can't make letting me in any easier

A                                            D                  E
I know I've been wearing crazy clothes and I look pretty crappy sometimes

A                               D                  E    F#m
But my body feels so good and I still sing a razor line everytime

            Em       D         G
And when it comes to all night living

                D
I know what I'm giving

Fmaj7                     A
I've got it all down to a tee

         Asus2*    E
And it's free
[Chorus 2]
A                                 D
When I say I love you you say you better

    F#m        E          A
You better you better you bet

A                                 D
When I say I need you you say you better

    F#m        E          A
You better you better you bet

A                                 D
When I say I love you you say you better

    F#m        E          A
You better you better you bet

A                                 D
When I say I need you you scream you better

    F#m        E          A
You better you better you bet
[Outro]
B                                 E
When I say I love you you say you better

    G#m         F#         B
You better you better you bet

B                                 E

You better you better you bet
E F#
E          F#
You better bet your life

E           F#
Or love will cut you

E   F#          E
    Just like a knife
