[Em]
[E] You want to know how it [G] will [D]
[E] be
Me [Em] and him [E] or you [Em] and me
[E] [F#m] You both stand [C] there, your long hair [F#m] flowing
Eyes [C] alive, your mind still growing
[F#m] Saying to [Em] me, [A] what can [Em] we do now that we [A] both love you
[D]
[A] [D] I [A] love you [D] too
[A] I [D] [A] [D] don't really see, [A] [A] why can't we [B] go [E] on as [Em] three
[E] You [Em]
[E] are afraid, embarrassed too
No one has ever said such a thing to you
Your [F#] [F#m] mother's ghost [C] stands at your [F#m] shoulder
Face like [C] ice, a little bit colder
[F#m] Saying [Em] to you, you cannot do that, it breaks [A] all the [D] rules
[A] [D] You [A] learned in [D] school
[A] [D] I [A] [D] don't really see, [A] [A] why can't we [G] go [E] on as three
We [Em]
[E] love [Em] each other,
[E] it's [Em] plain to see
[E] There's just one [Em] [E]
answer that [Em] comes to [E] me
[F#m] Sister lovers, [C] water brothers
[F#m] And in [C] time, maybe [F#m] others
So [Em] you see, what we can do is to try [A] something [D] new
[A] If [D] [A] you're [D] crazy too
[A] I [D] [A] don't really see, why can't we [Em] go on as [C#m] three
