[Verse]
Am C
Well you’re standing there, you say life ain’t fair
Am Em
Won’t ya tell me something, that I don’t know
Am C
Oh and man I’m sunk, red faced and drunk
Am G F
But there’s a reason I stayed up all night and begged you not to go
[Chorus]
C F C
And here I fear we've found ourselves a sticky situation
F C G
It's an awkward occupation disregarding right from wrong
C F C
And you were down on Washington, dancing like the devil
C/B Am G C
Oh and I am just a fool, but I have loved you all along

Well the everyday, it gets in the way

Of all the things, that we could be
Am C
Don’t ya understand, well I’m an honest man
Am G F
But I would steal you in a heartbeat if the choice were up to me
[Chorus]

And here I fear we've found ourselves a sticky situation
