|: D                 A  D               B7
     Get out of the car - put down the phone

Em              C              Em       A :|
  take off that stupid looking hat you wear
I'm gonna die if you touch me one more time
well I guess that I'm gonna die no matter what



Chorus:
 G                A
Love people are there

      D   /   A      G
the smell of love is everywhere

 A                     G
you think it's always sensitive and good

Em                       G
you think that I want to be understood

 Em    /    Bm              G   /   A      D  -
I've got a match - your embrace and my collapse



2.
Beat up the cat if you want someone else on the mat
I put a rock in the coffee in your coffee mug
which one of us is the one that we can't trust?
you say that I think it's you but I don't agree with that



Chorus:
 G                A
Love people are there

      D   /   A      G
the smell of love is everywhere

 A                G
why can't you be sensitive and good

Em                    G
why don't you want to be understood?

 Em    /    Bm              G   /   A      D   /  A         G    /   A
I've got a match - your embrace and my collapse - even when we get along

 Em    /    Bm             G    /   A      D
I've got a match - your embrace and my collapse
