I remember it [D] was broad daylight, we [G] were mobbin' down [F#] Broadway right past [Bm] all the North Beach City [Am] bars,
Condor [G] Club, Little Darlin's, and [F#] my shitty car.
You were [Bm] lookin' pretty darn fine [A] in the passenger side,
and [G] my mama's alright, [F#] and I was thinkin' [Bm] if I don't say shit, [Am] then I won't say shit, so [G] this scrub shit ends [F#] right here.
It's [B] been a pain in the [A] ass sittin' on this awkward [G] feelin', [F#] but I know that it's real, [B] and I'm thinkin' you probably [Am] had an inklin',
and now [G] you're leanin' back side [F#] and sayin',
[Bm] Mama said love's [Am] only half about lovin' [G] the other half's time, [F#] if you wanna [Bm] find your better half, baby, then [Am] you better have time [G] in on your side.

[Em] [F#] on the back burner, kidney on the back [E] burner.
[Am] So I thought for a bit, [G] sounds like a hot [F#] pile of fuck that shit, [Bm] cuz what [Am] about sacrifice?
[Bm] Do what we got to, cuz it's too painful not to.
You [Am] said that's [G] really a [F#] beautiful thought,
but let's not be [Bm] naive and deceive [Am] ourselves, you're gonna leave [G] California, and for your [F#] own sake, please don't force [B] a mistake.
Life tends to [Am] take irregular courses, [G] guided by some [F#] devilish forces, maybe [B] you could be my wife,
remember [Am] from our second divorces, [G] before we turn forever [C#] to corpses.
[E] I just think you're clever and gorgeous, if I ever get to enter that fortress and pour this pleasure into every orifice, I won't be checkin' my watch, I won't be checkin' [Bm] it.
