Want to play this song with chord shapes you're more comfortable with? Choose the key the song is in and the shapes you'd like to play. We'll tell you which fret to put the capo on so it still sounds in the original key. For example, a song in F#m played with Em shapes needs the capo on fret 2. Then transpose the chords to match the capo shape, so the chord sheet shows the shapes you're actually playing.

Intro

Cmaj7/GCmaj7/GEmEm

Verse 1

Cmaj7/G Em

I saw her in the rightest way

G

Looking like Anne Hathaway

Cmaj7/G Em

Laughing while she hit her pen

G

And coughed, and coughed

Cmaj7/G Em

And then, she came up to my knees

G

Begging, baby, would you please?

Cmaj7/G Em

Do the things you said you'd do

G

To me, to me

Chorus

Cmaj7/G

Oh, won't you kiss me on the

mouth and love me like a sailor?

G

And when you get a taste,

can you tell me what's my flavor?

Cmaj7/G

I don't believe in God,

Em

but I believe that you're my savior

G

My mom says that she's worried,

but I'm covered in His favor

Cmaj7/G

And when we're getting dirty,

I forget all that is wrong

G

I sleep so I can see you

'cause I hate to wait so long

Cmaj7/G

I sleep so I can see you and

G

I hate to wait so long

Gsus2Gsus2

Verse 2

Cmaj7/G Em

She took my fingers to her mouth

G

The kind of thing that makes you proud

Cmaj7/G Em

That nothing else had ever

G

Worked out, worked out

Cmaj7/G Em

And maybe I tried other things

G

But nothing can capture the sting

Cmaj7/G

Of the venom,

Em G

she's gonna spit out right now

Chorus

Cmaj7/G

Oh, won't you kiss me on the mouth

Em

and love me like a sailor?

G

And when you get a taste,

can you tell me what's my flavor?

Cmaj7/G

I don't believe in God,

Em

but I believe that you're my savior

G

I know that you've been worried,

but you're dripping in my favor

Cmaj7/G

And when we're getting dirty,

Em

I forget all that is wrong

G

I sleep so I can see you

'cause I hate to wait so long

Cmaj7/G

I sleep so I can see you and

Em

I hate to wait so long

GG

Outro

Cmaj7/G

And we can run away to the

Em

walls inside your house

G

I can be the cat, baby,

you can be the mouse

Cmaj7/G

And we can laugh off things

Em

that we know nothing about

G

We can go forever until

you wanna sit it out
