Cupids Chokehold

Am G F Em G


[Chorus]

Am                G
Take a look at my girlfriend
F                     Em   G
She's the only one I got (ba ba da da)
Am              G
Not much of a girlfriend
F                     Em     G
I never seem to get a lot (ba ba da da, ba ba da da)


Verse:
Am G F Em

Am                         G
It's been some time since we last spoke
F                          Em
This is gonna sound like a bad joke
Am                    G
But momma I fell in love again
F                           Em
It's safe to say I have a new girlfriend


Am            G
And I know it sounds so old
F                     Em
But cupid got me in a chokehold
Am                     G
And I'm afraid I might give in
F                    Em
Towels on the mat my white flag is wavin'


Am                       G
I mean she even cooks me pancakes

F                        Em    G
And Alka Seltzer when my tummy aches
Am                        G
If that ain't love then I don't know what love is


F                    G
We even got a secret handshake
Am                              Em   G
And she loves the music that my band makes
F                                       G
I know I'm young but if I had to choose her or the sun
Am                   Em       G
I'd be one nocturnal son of a gun

F             G
(ba ba da da, ba ba da da)


[Chorus]

Am                G
Take a look at my girlfriend
F                     Em   G
She's the only one I got (ba ba da da)
Am              G
Not much of a girlfriend
F                     Em     G
I never seem to get a lot (ba ba da da, ba ba da da)


Am                G
Take a look at my girlfriend
F                     Em   G
She's the only one I got (ba ba da da)
Am              G
Not much of a girlfriend
F                     Em     G
I never seem to get a lot (ba ba da da, ba ba da da)


[Verse]

Am                        G
It's been awhile since we talked last
F                          Em   G
and I'm tryin' hard not to talk fast

Am                                      G
But dad I'm finally thinkin' I may have found the one
F                                   Em            G
Type of girl that will make you way proud of your son


Am                       G                   F                 Em  
And I know you heard the last song about the girls that didn't last 
  G
long
Am                         G
But I promise this is on a whole new plane
F                         Em      G
I can tell by the way she says my name (ba ba da da)


Am                 G
I love it when she calls my phone
F                     Em   G
She even got her very own ringtone
Am            G         F            Em         G
If that ain't love then I don't know what love is (ba ba da da)


Am                   G                F                 Em     G
It's gonna be a long drive home but I know as soon as I arrive home
Am                   G                F                 Em     G
And I open the door take off my coat and throw my bag on the floor
Am                   G                F                 Em     G
She'll be back into my arms once more for sure


[Chorus]

Am                G
Take a look at my girlfriend
F                     Em   G
She's the only one I got (ba ba da da)
Am              G
Not much of a girlfriend
F                     Em     G
I never seem to get a lot (ba ba da da, ba ba da da)


[Bridge]

She's got a smile that would make the most senile

Annoying old man bite his tongue
I'm not done
She's got eyes comparable to sunrise
And it doesn't stop there
Man I swear
She's got porcelain skin of course she's a ten
And now she's even got her own song
But movin' on
She's got the cutest laugh I ever heard
And we can be on the phone for three hours
Not sayin' one word
And I would still cherish every moment
And when I start to build my future she's the main component
Call it dumb call it luck call it love or whatever you call it but
Everywhere I go I keep her picture in my wallet like here


[Chorus]

Am                G
Take a look at my girlfriend
F                     Em   G
She's the only one I got (ba ba da da)
Am              G
Not much of a girlfriend
F                     Em     G
I never seem to get a lot (ba ba da da, ba ba da da)


Am                G
Take a look at my girlfriend
F                     Em   G
She's the only one I got (ba ba da da)
Am              G
Not much of a girlfriend
F                     Em     G
I never seem to get a lot (ba ba da da, ba ba da da)
