Take a look at [G#m] my girlfriend, [A] she's the only one I got
[G#m]
[C#m] Not [G#m] much of a girlfriend, [A] I never seem to get a lot
[B]
[C#m] It's been some time since we last spoke, this is gonna [G#] sound like a bad [A] joke
[G#] But mama I [E] fell in love [F#] again, it's safe to say [G#] I have a new girlfriend
[Em] And I know it [B] sounds so old, but Cupid [C] got me in a choke [A] hold
[C#m] And I'm afraid I might give [F#] in, towels on the mat, [G#] my white flag is waving
[C#m] I mean she even cooks [D#m] me [E] pancakes, and I'm gonna sell some when my tummy [F#m] aches
If [A] that ain't love then I don't [G#m] know what [C#m] love is
We even [D#] got a secret handshake, [E] and she loves the music that my [F#m] band makes
I [A] know I'm young but if I [C#m] had to choose her or the sun, I'd [E] be one nocturnal son of a [C#m] gun
Ba ba da da, ba ba da da, ba ba da da

It's been a [D#m] while since we talked last, [E] and I'm trying hard not to [F#m] talk fast
But then I'm [A] finally thinking I may have [G#] found the one type of [E] girl that'll make you way proud of your son
[C#m]
And I [D#m] know you heard the last song, [E] about the girls that didn't [F#m] last long
[G#] But I [A] promise this is on a [G#m] whole new plane, I can [C#m] tell by the way she says my name
I love it when [D#m] she calls my phone, she [E] even got her very own [F#m] ringtone
[C#m] If [A] that ain't love then [C#m] I don't know what [E] love is
[C#]
It's gonna be [D#] a long drive home, but [E] I know as soon as I [F#] arrive home

[F#m] She's got [A] eyes comparable to [G#] sunrise, and it [E] doesn't stop [F#] there
[D#m] [C#m] She's got porcelain skin, of course she's a 10, and now she's even got her own song
She's got the cutest laugh I ever heard, and we can [G#m] be on the phone for 3 hours
[C#m] And I would still cherish every moment, and when I start to build my future she's the main component
Call it [F#m] dumb, call it luck, call it [C#] love, or whatever you [E] call it but
