[Intro]
E C#m
[Verse]
E
Usually a drink will do the trick
E
Take the edge off quick, sitting in the dark
C#m
With a shared cigarette
Seeing eye-to-eye, and heart-to-heart
A
But maybe I’m just getting old
Used to work but now it don’t
E
A long gone drive
You know the kind where you take a turn
C#m
and you don’t know why
But it clears your mind, a surefire cure
A
I need something stronger
B
That’ll last a little longer
[Chorus]
A
I could use a love song
That takes me back, just like that
E
When it comes on
To a time when I wouldn’t roll my eyes
C#m
At a guy and a girl
B
Who make it work in a world
E G#m A
That for me so far just seems to go so wrong
E
Yeah I could use, I could use a love song
[Instrumental]
C#m
[Verse]
E
I wish I didn’t know so much
I peeked behind the curtain
C#m
Now that magic rush
Feels like a trick that isn’t working
A
But I haven’t lost all hope yet
B
Yeah it’s hurting but it ain’t dead
A
I could use a love song
That takes me back, just like that
E
When it comes on
To a time when I wouldn’t roll my eyes
C#m
At a guy and a girl
B
Who make it work in a world
E G#m A
That for me so far just seems to go so wrong
C#m
Yeah I could use, I could use a love song
[Bridge]
C#m
C#m E F#m
Give me a sign or a rhyme or a reason
C#m E A
Just something that I can believe in
[Chorus]
A
I could use a love song
That takes me back, just like that
E
When it comes on
To a time when I wouldn’t roll my eyes
C#m
At a guy and a girl
B
Who make it work in a world
E G#m A
That for me so far just seems to go so wrong
B E
Yeah I could use, I could use a love song
[Outro]
