(D5 G)
Early in the morning
Risin' to the street
Light me up that cigarette
And I'll strap shoes on my feet

Got to find a reason
Reason things went wrong
Got to find a reason
Why my money's all gone

I got a dalmation
And I can still get high / I can still get high
I can play the guitar
Like a motherfuckin' riot

Verse

Oh life is / Life is too short
So love the one you got
'Cuz you might get run over
Or you might get shot

Never start no static / Never had to battle with my
I just get it off my chest / bulletproof vest
Never had to battle with my / Never start static
bulletproof vest / I get it off my chest

Take a small example
Take a tip-ta-tip from me / A tip from me
Take all of your money
Give it up to charity

Love is what I got
It's within my reach
and the Sublime styles / the Sublime styles
Dealt straight from Long Beach

It all comes back to you / It comes back to you
You'll finally get what you deserve / You gonna get what you deserve
Try 'n test that
Your bound to get served

Love's what I got
Don't start a riot
You'll feel it when
the dance get's hot


Chorus and Solo

Love is
What i got
I said remember that
Love is
What i got
Now remember that


Chorus without Solo

Love is
What i got
I said remember that
Love is
What i got


Verse

I don't cry
When my dog runs away
I don't get angry
At the bills I have to pay

I don't get angry
When my mom smokes pot
Hits the bottle
And goes right to the rock

Fuckin' and fightin'
It's all the same
Livin with Louie Dog
Is the only way to stay sane

Let the lovin'
Let the lovin' come back to me


Chorus

Love is
What i got
I said remember that
Love is
What i got
Now remember that
Love is
What i got
I said remember that
Love is
What i got
