verse 1 
C                      F                C 
I'll pick you up, just tell me when you land 
C                       G 
It's raining in LA, and everyone's gone mad 
            Am              G           C               F 
I'd love to take you to the desert, but you hate makin' plans 
     C                 G                C 
I'll pick you up, just tell me when you land 
C                         F               C 
Now all my songs, they're sounding out of tune 
C                          G                   
The ocean's just a trinket, a gift from me to you 
Am                G            C                   F 
I wanna sing your praises, cos you've been feeling blue 
C                    G               C 
But all my songs are sounding out of tune 

         Am 
You're a drag queen's dress 
         Em 
You're a plastic knife 
       F                       G 
You're pretty dangerous and so untrue 
         C 
No, it's all been said 
         F 
A couple million times 
C                      G                 C 
But why'd you make me fall in love with you? 

verse 2 
         C                  F         C 
The last time I dropped you off at LAX 
C                             G 
I kissed you on the forehead, I wished you all the best 
  Am                 G             C                  F 
I realized you never stay put, the last time that you left 
         C                  G         C 
The last time I dropped you off at LAX 
   C               F                C 
But if you want to come back in the spring 
C                          G 
We could go to the movies, we could do anything 
     Am         G             C             F 
It's all within reason, it's all been in my dreams 
C              G                C 
If you want to come back in the spring 

         Am                   Em 
You're a toy I like, you're a traffic light 
           F                                G 
You're the thing I stop and go for when i'm blue 
           C                  F 
Yeah, I'll never know if it's wrong or right 
    C                  G                C 
But why'd you make me fall in love with you? 
           C                  F 
Yeah, I'll never know if it's wrong or right 
    C                 G                 C 
But why'd you make me fall in love with you?
