Tom: F
F Bb C
[Chorus]
F
I've got a lid
Bb
I know how to use it
F
I've got a bucket of love
C
And I don't want to lose it
F
If someone comes around here
Bb
Dippin' in, I refuse it
F C F
Cause I've got a lid, I've got a lid
[Verse 1]
C F
I'm not willing for the good stuff filling my bucket to be taken
Bb F
Away from me so easily
C F
So I start thinking 'bout the person who's sinking their dipper into my light
G C
And when I look in their eyes, I see an empty bucket inside. That's why...
[Chorus]
F
I've got a lid
Bb
I know how to use it
F
I've got a bucket of love
C
And I don't want to lose it
F
If someone comes around here
Bb
Dippin' in, I refuse it
F C F
Cause I've got a lid, I've got a lid
[Verse 2]
C F
The simple fact is, a person who dips has got a bucket that needs filling
Bb F
When they dip they're tryin' to fill a hole inside 'em... They think
C F
They're filling their bucket, but nothing could be further from the truth
G C
It's so clear to see it's all about them not me. That's why...
F
We've all got lids
Bb
We gotta learn how to use them
F
Cause we've got buckets of love
C
And we don't want to lose them
F
If someone comes around here
Bb
Dippin' in, we refuse them
F C
Cause we've got lids
F
We've all got lids
[Chorus]
F
I've got a lid
Bb
I know how to use it
F
I've got a bucket of love
C
And I don't want to lose it
F
If someone comes around here
Bb
Dippin' in, I refuse it
F C F
Cause I've got a lid, I've got a lid
