Cupids Chokehold

[Intro]
G#
Ba ba da da, ba ba da da
Ba ba da da, ba ba da da, ba ba da da

[Chorus]
C#m                  B
   Take a look at my girlfriend
A                       B
She's the only one I got
C#m              B
   Not much of a girlfriend
  A                      B
I never seem to get a lot

[Verse 1]
C#m                             B
   It's been some time since we last spoke
              A
This is gonna sound like a bad joke
          B C#m               B
But momma I fell in love again
                   A                    B
It's safe to say I have a new girlfriend
C#m                     B
   And I know it sounds so old
          A
But cupid got me in a chokehold
    B     C#m                 B
And I'm afraid I might give in
Towel's on the mat,
   A                   B
my white flag is wavin'
C#m                         B
   I mean she even cooks me pancakes
         A                                        B
And Alka Seltzer when my tummy aches If that ain't
    C#m             B                A B
love   then I don't know what love is
C#m                     B
   We even got a secret handshake
                  A                                  B
And she loves the music that my band makes I know I'm
     C#m                       B
young   but if I had to choose her or the sun
      A                          B
I'd be one nocturnal son of a gun

[Chorus]
C#m                  B
   Take a look at my girlfriend
A                       B
She's the only one I got
C#m              B
   Not much of a girlfriend
  A                      B
I never seem to get a lot
C#m                  B
   Take a look at my girlfriend
A                       B
She's the only one I got
C#m              B
   Not much of a girlfriend
  A                      B
I never seem to get a lot

[Verse 2]
C#m                           B
   It's been a while since we talked last
               A
And I'm tryin' hard not to talk fast
                    B          C#m                   B
But dad I'm finally thinkin' I may have found the one
                                A                    B
Type of girl that will make you way proud of your son
C#m                         B
   And I know you heard the last song
          A
About the girls that didn't last long
              B       C#m                 B
But I promise this is on a whole new plane
                  A                   B
I can tell by the way she says my name
C#m                         B
   I love it when she calls my phone
                 A                              B
She even got her very own ringtone If that ain't
    C#m             B                A B
love   then I don't know what love is
C#m                     B
   It's gonna be a long drive home
              A
But I know as soon as I arrive home
               B    C#m
And I open the door,   take off my coat
             B
And throw my bag on the floor
          A
She'll be back into my arms once more for sure,
B
like

[Bridge]
A       A/G# F#m       B
Ah, ah, ah,  ah, ah, ah

[Chorus]
C#m                  B
   Take a look at my girlfriend
A                       B
She's the only one I got
C#m              B
   Not much of a girlfriend
  A                      B
I never seem to get a lot

[Verse 3]
C#m
   She's got a smile that'll make the most senile
Annoying old man bite his tongue,
I'm not done
A
 She's got eyes comparable to sunrise
       G#m
And it doesn't stop there, man I swear
      C#m
She's got porcelain skin,
of course she's a ten
And now she's even got her own song but movin' on
              A
She's got the cutest laugh I ever heard
                          G#m
And we can be on the phone   for three hours,
not sayin' one word
            C#m
And I would still cherish every moment
And when I start to build my future she's the main
component
                      A
Call it dumb, call it luck,
call it love or whatever you call it
    G#m
But everywhere I go I keep her picture in my wallet like

[Chorus]
C#m                  B
   Take a look at my girlfriend
A                       B
She's the only one I got
C#m              B
   Not much of a girlfriend
  A                      B
I never seem to get a lot
C#m                  B
   Take a look at my girlfriend
A                       B
She's the only one I got
C#m              B
   Not much of a girlfriend
  A                      B C#m
I never seem to get a lot
