Why I Love You

Tone [G]

[C]She dragged my heart into the [Bm]flames She's pleasure and she's [E7]pain

She's more than what I [Am]bargained for (Initially I)

[C]Thought she was sand between my [Bm]toes But now she's in my [E7]clothes

Shoes, socks, and [Am]nose (Oh no, now I'm getting itchy)

[C]In the winter you're a [Bm]bright and sunny day

Then you [E7]go and turn to rain just when I [Am]think it's safe to [D]play

 

And that's [D]why I [C]love you (You [G]bring the joy into the darkness of dismay)

[D]Why I [C]need you (You put the [Cm]color into boring shades of gray)

[G]Like August rain into the [C]summer (No one could ever take your place)

[G]You are the dеssert to my [Cm]supper (Supper, a flowеr, the sweetness to my sour)

You bring the [D]light into the darkest of [G]days

 

[C]And it's complicated, [Bm]convoluted No batteries included

[E7]When you picture it in your [Am]mind

[C]But when she's here every[Bm]thing falls into place

Like a [E7]brushstroke in this painting of her and [Am]I (Uh)

 

And that's [D]why I [C]love you (You [G]bring the joy into the darkness of dismay)

[D]Why I [C]need you (You put the [Cm]color into boring shades of gray)

[G]Like August rain into the [C]summer (No one could ever take your place)

[G]You are the dеssert to my [Cm]supper (Supper, a flowеr, the sweetness to my sour)

You bring the [D]light into the darkest of [G]days
