[Verse 1]

G
I don't care if you never come home,
C
I don't mind if you just..keep on
G
rolling away on a distant sea,
      D                                   G  
cause I don't love you and you don't love me.


[Verse 2]

G
You cause a commotion when you come to town,
C
give 'em a smile and they melt.
        G
And the lovers and friends are all good and fine,
    D                                     G
but I don't like yours and you don't like mine.


G  C   Bm           D
La la..la la la la la.
G  C   Bm           D  G
La la..la la la la la.


[Verse 3]

G
I don't care what you do with your nights,
    C
oh, I don't care how you get your delights..
          G
I'll just leave you alone, I'll just let it be,
  D                                 G  G7
I don't love you and you don't love me.


[CHORUS]

C                G
I got a problem..can you relate?
Am7            G
I got a woman..calling love hate.
C                   G
We made a vow..we'd always be friends.
Am7                             G
How could we know that promises end?

G  C   Bm           D
La la..la la la la la.
G  C   Bm           D   G
La la..la la la la la.


[Verse 4]

G
I tried to love you for years upon years,
C
you refused to take me for real.
     G
It's time you saw what I want you to see
         D                                 G  G7
that I'd still love you if you'd just love me.


[CHORUS]

C                G
I got a problem..can you relate?
Am7            G
I got a woman..calling love hate.
C                   G
We made a vow..we'd always be friends.
Am7                             G
How could we know that promises end?
