Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][G][G][G]

[Verse 1]
[G]I don't care if you never come home
[C]I don't mind if you just
keep on [G]rowin' away on a distant sea
'Cause I [D]don't love you and you don't love [G]me

[Verse 2]
You [G]cause a commotion
when you come to town
You [C]give 'em a smile and they melt
And your [G]lovers
and friends is all good and fine
But I [D]don't like yours and you don't like [G]mine

[Chorus 1]
La [C]la [G]la la la la [D]la
La [C]la [G]la la la la [D]la
[G][G]

[Verse 3]
[G]I don't care what you do at night
Oh, [C]I don't care how you get you delites
We'll [G]leave it alone and just let it be
I [D]don't love you and you don't love [G]me

[Bridge 1]
[C]I got a problem, c[G]an you relate
[Am]I got a woman ca[G]llin' love hate
[C]We made a vow we'd [G]always be friends
[Am]How could we know that promises [G]end

[Chorus 2]
La [C]la [G]la la la la [D]la
La [C]la [G]la la la la [D]la
[G][G]

[Verse 4]
[G]I tried to love you for years upon years
You [C]refuse to take me for real
It's [G]time you saw what I want you to see
And I'd [D]still love you if you'd just love [G]me

[Bridge 2]
[C]I got a pro[G]blem, can you relate
[Am]I got a woman callin' love hate[G]
[C]We made a vow we'd [G]always be friends
[Am]How could we know that promises [G]end

[Chorus 3]
La [C]la [G]la la la la [D]la
La [C]la [G]la la la la [D]la
[Repeat and fade]
