[Verse] GDAmC Love grows in me like a tumor, GDAmC a parasite bent on devouring its host. GDAmC I'm developing my sense of humor, GDAmC till I can laugh at my heart between your teeth, GDAmC till I can laugh at my face beneath your feet.
[Pre-Chorus] CAm Skillet on the stove, it's such a temptation, CAm maybe I'll be the lucky one that doesn't get burned.
[Chorus] (shortened) N.C. GDAmC What the fuck was I thinking?
[Verse] GDAmC Love plows through me like a dozer, GDAmC I've got more give than a bale of hay, GDAmC and there's always a big mess left over. GDAmC With the "What did you do?" and the "What did you say?", GDAmC the "What did you do? and the "What did you say?"
[Pre-Chorus] CAm Skillet on the stove, it's such a temptation, CAm maybe I'll be the special one that doesn't get burned.
[Chorus] N.C. GDAm What the fuck was I thinking? CGDAm What the fuck was I thinking? CGDAm What the fuck was I thinking? CGDAmC What the fuck was I thinking?
[Verse] GDAmC Love tears me up like a demon. GDAmC Opens the wounds and then fills them with lead, GDAmC and I'm having some trouble just breathing. GDAmC If we weren't such good friends I think that I'd hate you. GDAmC If we weren't such good friends I'd wish you were dead
[Pre-Chorus] CAm Skillet on the stove, it's such a temptation, CAm maybe I'll be the lucky one that doesn't get burned.
[Chorus] N.C. GDAm What the fuck was I thinking? CGDAm What the fuck was I thinking? CGDAm What the fuck was I thinking?
[Outro] CGDAmC Love is so embarrassing (What the fuck was I thinking?) (What the fuck...) GDAmC I'm in this awkward and uncomfortable thing, (...was I thinking?) (What the fuck was I...) GDAmC and I'm running out of places to hide it (...thinking?) (What the fuck was I...) GDAm and I'm running out of places to hide it (...thinking?) N.C. GDAm What the fuck was I thinking? (You know that I've got what you want) CGDAm What the fuck was I thinking? (You know that I've got what you want) CGDAm What the fuck was I thinking? (You know that I've got what you want) CGDAmC What the fuck was I thinking? (You know that I've got what you want)
