[Intro]
G   D   Am   C   (4x)
 
[Verse]
G             D         Am      C
Love grows in me like a tumor,
  G        D          Am         C
a parasite bent on devouring its host.
    G          D           Am      C
I'm developing my sense of humor,
G          D           Am                 C
till I can laugh at my heart between your teeth,
G          D           Am                C
till I can laugh at my face beneath your feet.
 
[Pre-Chorus]
C                          Am
Skillet on the stove, it's such a temptation,
C                                Am
maybe I'll be the lucky one that doesn't get burned.
 
[Chorus]
(shortened)
         N.C.       G        D Am C
What the fuck was I thinking?
 
[Verse]
G                  D         Am      C
Love plows through me like a dozer,
G             D           Am      C
I've got more give than a bale of hay,
            G        D             Am      C
and there's always a big mess left over.
          G            D             Am           C
With the "What did you do?" and the "What did you say?",
     G            D            Am           C
the "What did you do? and the "What did you say?"
 
[Pre-Chorus]
C                          Am
Skillet on the stove, it's such a temptation,
C                                  Am
maybe I'll be the special one that doesn't get burned.
 
[Chorus]
         N.C.       G        D Am
What the fuck was I thinking?
         C          G        D Am
What the fuck was I thinking?
         C          G        D Am
What the fuck was I thinking?
         C          G        D Am C
What the fuck was I thinking?
 
[Verse]
G             D         Am      C
Love tears me up like a demon.
G         D               Am              C
Opens the wounds and then fills them with lead,
        G           D            Am         C
and I'm having some trouble just breathing.
G                  D              Am             C
If we weren't such good friends I think that I'd hate you.
G                  D                Am            C
If we weren't such good friends I'd wish you were dead
 
[Pre-Chorus]
C                          Am
Skillet on the stove, it's such a temptation,
C                                  Am
maybe I'll be the lucky one that doesn't get burned.
 
[Chorus]
         N.C.       G        D Am
What the fuck was I thinking?
         C          G        D Am
What the fuck was I thinking?
         C          G        D Am
What the fuck was I thinking?
 
[Outro]
          C          G       D    Am             C
                     Love is so embarrassing
(What the fuck was I thinking?)        (What the fuck...)
            G       D     Am          C
I'm in this awkward and uncomfortable thing,
(...was I   thinking?)         (What the fuck was I...)
        G              D         Am            C
and I'm running out of places to hide it
    (...thinking?)                   (What the fuck was I...)
        G              D         Am
and I'm running out of places to hide it
    (...thinking?)
         N.C.       G              D             Am
What the fuck was I thinking?
                    (You know that I've got what you want)
         C          G              D             Am
What the fuck was I thinking?
                    (You know that I've got what you want)
         C          G              D             Am
What the fuck was I thinking?
                    (You know that I've got what you want)
         C          G              D             Am        C
What the fuck was I thinking?
                    (You know that I've got what you want)

the chorus sounds really good if you add a C/E into the middle of the C and Am.
