Desperate Things

| Gadd9  | Csus2  | 2x


[Verse 1]
         G            Csus2
She was doing 60 in a 35
I hit the lights and pulled her 
Gadd9
over
When I reached the window of the 
  Csus2
driver side
                                  G
There was blood from her mouth, dry 
on her shoulder
            Gadd9               
I've never had much patience for 
  Csus2
guys that hit
                   G
For more than just obvious reasons
  Gadd9                      Csus2
I asked if she wanted me to take him
 in
                             G
She laughed it off like lemonade


[Chorus]
  Em7                          
When you're in love, you can be 
          Gadd9            D/F#
blinded by your own heart
        Em7                   
You'll bend your own truth, so 
                       Am7
twisted up you could justify sin
          Csus2            
And when people in love are 
  Dsus2                Em7
desperate enough to abandon their 
dreams
           Csus2   Dsus2   Gadd9 
People do despe---rate   things
    Csus2

[Verse 2]
           G                  
I've been taking lunch breaks at her
Csus2
 work
When the restaurant ain't too 
  G
crowded
She knows me and my wife got a 
 Csus2
little girl
                             Gadd9
We don't talk too much about it
                            Csus2
The other night she met me way out 
west
Things went further than they should
  Gadd9
 have
But when she undid the buttons of 
Csus2
her dress
                          G
I didn't stop her, but I could have


[Chorus]
  Em7                          
When you're in love, you can be 
          Gadd9            D/F#
blinded by your own heart
        Em7                   
You'll bend your own truth, so 
                       Am9
twisted up you could justify sin
          Csus2            
And when people in love are 
  Dsus2                Em7
desperate enough to abandon their 
dreams
           Csus2   Dsus2   Gadd9 
People do despe---rate   things

[Verse 3]
    G                       Csus2
I know where he drinks most every 
night
                      G
It's our local hero sports bar
                          Csus2
I've got him cuffed and sweating 
cold
                      G
In the back of my patrol car
You forget how dark the canyon 
Csus2
gets
                       G
It's a real uneasy feeling
I've never had much patience for 
    Csus2
guys who hit
                      G
For more than just obvious reasons


[Chorus]
  Em7                          
When you're in love, you can be 
          Gadd9            D/F#
blinded by your own heart
        Em7                   
You'll bend your own truth, so 
                       Am7
twisted up you could justify sin
          Csus2            
And when people in love are 
  Dsus2                Em7
desperate enough to abandon their 
dreams
           Csus2   Dsus2   Gadd9 
People do despe---rate   things
