C
Sometimes i push it a little to hard
 F      Em          Dm
fall asleep in my friend's backyard
     G                  F             Dm
and when i see you, I crumple into a puddle
     C
but you put your rainjacket over my puddle,
  F      Em              Dm
cure my woes with your ever cuddle
 G                         F                Dm
you're like a sale at the mattress discount store


[Chorus]

  G7       F                    C
I try too hard to be tough too often
   G7            F     C
i never want to break down
    G           F                        C
but you always seem to give me good old loving
         G7              F               C
I don't have to play it cool when your around


[Verse 2]

   C
i wish i saved more energy for you
  F          Em         Dm
instead i disperse it around in the blue
  G7                  F              Dm
talking to squid and doing mass spectrometry
    C
but you're like a meadow in the middle of july
   F                Em             Dm
i love it when you pick me up and sit me on your thigh
  G                    F               Dm
I feel like a kid who gets to talk to santa claus


[Chorus]

  G7       F                     C
I try too hard to be tough too often
    G7           F     C
i never want to break down
    G           F                        C
but you always seem to give me good old loving
        G7              F                C
I don't have to play it cool when your around
