[Verse 1]

[C]                         [G]
I met a guy in a west coast town.
[G]                         [Dm]
Had four walls to bring him down.
[Dm]                       [F]
And he sometimes speaks of you
    [G]                   [C]
The way that you want him to.
[C]                     [G]
Late at night he’d reminisce
[G]                      [Dm]
Over the lips he used to kiss
[Dm]                   [F]
And his hand upon your hip.
[G]                      [Dm]
Why don’t you send him a line?
[Dm]                     [F]
Cause I’m almost certain [...]
[Dm]              [F]
That he’s going crazy
    [G]                 [C]
For two seconds of your love.


[Chorus 1]

[C]                 [G]
Two seconds of your love
[G]                [Dm]
Is all I need from you.
[Dm]                [F]
Two seconds of your time;
        [G]                [C]
That’s enough to say we’re through.
[C]               [G]
Two beats of your heart
   [G]                        [Dm]
Is enough to know we’ll never part.
[Dm]                [F]
Two seconds of your love;
[G]               [Dm]
That’s all I ever want.

[Motif 1 again then the same chords for the following, except where noted]


[Verse 2]

I never thought that he’d go that far.
Lost his job and he stole a car.
And he’s running back to you
The way that you want him to.
Late at night I reminisce
Over the lips I used to kiss
And your hand upon my wrist.
Why don’t you send me a line?
Cause I’m almost certain
That I’m going crazy
For two seconds of your love.

[Chorus 2]

Two seconds of your love
Is all I need of you.
Two seconds of your time;
That’s enough to say we’re through.
Two beats of your heart
Is enough to know we’ll never part.
Two seconds of your love;
[G]             [C]
It’s all I ever want.

[Chorus 2]
Two seconds of your love
Is all I need of you.
Two seconds of your time;
That’s enough to say we’re through.
Two beats of your heart
Is enough to know we’ll never part.
Two seconds of your love;
It’s all I ever want.

[Motif 1 again and end with a C chord]
