[VERSE] C / / / C / G / F / C / G / / /
Spent forty-eight dollars last night at the county fair.
I throwed out my shoulder, but I won her that Teddy Bear.
She's got me saying,"Sugar Pie, Honey, Darlin', and Dear."
I ain't seen the Braves play a game all year.
I’m gonna get fired, if I don't get some sleep.
My long lost buddies say I'm gettin' in too deep.
[CHORUS] C F G C
But I like it, I love it, I want some more of it.
I try, so hard, I can't rise above it
Don't know what it is, about that little gal's lovin'
But I like it, I love it, I want some more of it.
[VERSE]
My momma and daddy tried to teach me courtesy.
But it never sank in,'til that girl got a hold of me.
Now, I'm holdin' umbrellas and opening up doors.
I'm taking out the trash, and I'm sweepin' my floors.
I'm crossing my fingers and countin' every kiss.
Prayin' that it keeps goin' on like this.
[CHORUS]
[BRIDGE]
F
Gotta wash my truck, and dress up.
C
To pick her up to watch T.V.
F
And she sits down on the sofa, she’ll move a little closer.
G
She can't get enough of me.
[CHORUS]

C C/B Am7 C/B
I took my love and I took it down
C C/B Am7 C/B
I climbed a mountain and I turned around
C C/B Am7 C/B
And I saw my reflection in the snow covered hills
C C/B Am7 C/B
Until the landslide brought me down
C C/B Am7 C/B
Oh mirror in the sky What is love
C C/B Am7 C/B
Can the child within my heart rise above
C C/B Am7 C/B
Can I sail through the changing ocean tides
C C/B Am7 C/B
Can I handle the seasons of my life
[Pre Chorus]

And if you see my relfection in the snow covered hills
well...
[Outro]
C C/B Am7 C/B
A landslide will bring you down
C C/B Am7
well a landslide bring you down
I wanna hold the hand inside you
I wanna take the breath that's true
I look to you and I see nothing
I look to you to see the truth
You live your life, you go in shadows
You'll come apart and you'll go blind
Some kind of night into your darkness
Colors your eyes with what's not there
Fade into you
Strange, you never knew
Fade into you
I think it's strange you never knew
A stranger light comes on slowly
A stranger's heart without a home
You put your hands into your head
And then smiles cover your heart
Fade into you
Strange, you never knew
Fade into you
I think it's strange you never knew
Fade into you
Strange, you never knew
Fade into you
I think it's strange you never knew
I think it's strange you never knew
[Verse]
