[Intro]
Dm Bb F Am

[Verse 1]
Dm         Bb
    It's an art,
   F        Am             Dm
The way you painted my heart
           Bb
To go with yours,
 F                           Am                              Dm
You drew out the deepest color red that I had known down at my core
           Bb
Could it be love?
 F                                 Am                        Dm
I thought I had it once before but now I realize it's like a glove
           Bb
The way you fit,
 F                              Am                         Dm
Despite my jagged edges my bad habits girl you put up with my…
    Bb
li dee di,
 F                                Am
Despite my jagged edges girl you put up with my…
      Dm
li dee di,
      Bb
li dee do,
      F
li li dee di
      Am
li to li dee do

[Chorus]
Dm            Bb                    F
    Now I'm standing on this lonely street,
         Am              Dm
I been waiting waiting for
 Bb                          F                 A                  Dm
A lightning bolt to strike my feet, so I'll come running to your door
           Bb                                     F
Like the green grass grows and the ocean waves are blue,
      C                                  Dm
No I'm wanting, no I'm needing something true
             Bb                        F
When I come knocking will you let me through,
           Am* *once           Dm
So I can get on with loving you
     Bb
li dee do,
     F
li dee di
     Am
li to li dee do
    Dm                Bb   F   Am   Dm
let to loving you... mmm

[Verse 2]
       Bb
It's a kiss,
 F                            Am                          Dm
I question my own sanity the very minute that I start to resist
          Bb
And head on home,
 F                            Am                           Dm
I drown into the covers for no reason as I lay there by the phone
          Bb          F                       Am                         Dm
To call you girl, apologize for my behavior, I'm afraid you took me for a whirl
                    Bb        F                             Am
When you said those words, I backed away, acted a fool and now I've got regret like
      Dm
li dee di,
      Bb
li dee do
  F                             Am
I backed away, acted a fool and now i've got regret like
  Dm
li dee di,
   Bb
li dee do
     F
li dee di,
     Am
li to li dee do

[Chorus]
Dm                Bb                     F               Am             Dm
   And now I'm standing on this lonely street, I been waiting waiting for
       Bb                     F
A lightning bolt to strike my feet,
              A               Dm
So I'll come running to your door
        Bb                                     F
Like the green grass grows and the ocean waves are blue,
          C                              Dm
No I'm wanting, no I'm needing something true
           Bb                           F             Am*                    Dm
When I come knocking will you let me through, so I can get on with loving you ...

li dee do... li dee di
       Am
