verse 1 
G            Em        D 
I am sorry I yelled at you 

'Bout the baby's clothes 
          C 
'Bout the car on fire 
      D 
About love 


verse 2 
          G                    Em          D 
The seven year itch is quite a bitch, it's true 

But believe me 
        C 
I don't lie 
  D 
I love you 

 
           G 
And we can make it 
             Em 
If you don't break it 
           D 
It's up to you 


verse 3 
         G                    Em     D 
When the fire gets cold, it's really cold 

And to believe in you 
         C 
Really believe in you 
             D 
It's hard to do 


verse 4

I am sorry I yelled at you 

'Bout the baby's clothes 
          C 
'Bout the car on fire 
      D 
About love 

 
           G 
And we can make it 
             Em 
If you don't break it 
           D 
It's up to you

I don't lie 
  D 
I love you 


           G 
And we can make it 
             Em 
If you don't break it

It's up to you
