G                D
A third party at a table for two
Em                 G
I'm sorry, I don't mean to intrude
    C              Am             G
But it was me and you before you met her.

G                  D
All the love songs you wrote for me,
 Em                         G
(You) stuck her name where mine used to be
    C                Am             G       D
But my name in them fit the rhythm better.

[Pre-Chorus]
Em
I'd go if you had a ride
C
I'd smoke if you had a light
Am                    D       D7
I fall every time for this.

[Chorus]
  A           E         F#m
But love is trippy like that
               E                 D
Sometimes you think that you've got it
   A             D               E
Nobody's gonna trick you out of this one baby.

  A            E                 F#m
But love will slip through your hands.
            E            D          A
You never know how to hold it, control it,
       D           E          G   D  Em  G  C Am  G
Your gripping is tripping you up.

[Verse]
  G                  D
Says the woman who sings at the bar
Em                    G
This is for you, you know who you are
       C                     Am               G
I was you once, looking for someone I never found.

G                D
She paints in a low smoky voice
Em                    G
Pictures of bruises, bad days and boys
     C                 Am                  G       D
And how they stood her up just to let her down.

[Pre-Chorus]
Em
She'd win if you were the prize,
C
Gives in to all of your lies,
Am                         D     D7
She'd fall every time for this.

[Chorus]
  A           E         F#m
But love is trippy like that
               E                 D
Sometimes you think that you've got it
   A             D               E
Nobody's gonna trick you out of this one baby.

  A            E                 F#m
But love will slip through your hands.
            E            D          A
You never know how to hold it, control it,
       D           E          G   D  Em  G  C Am  G
Your gripping is tripping you up.

[Verse]
G                      D
All of the girls who feel like they're 
      Em                  G
Overdressed, undersexed, starving for yesses or 
C                  Am            G
Maybes, tired of always being ignored.

G                   D
You might see the available chair
Em                  G
Beside me, the invitation is there
         C                Am                  G     D
But I'm not the kind of scratch he's itching for.

[Pre-Chorus]
Em
And I'd go if you had a ride
C
And I'd smoke if you had a light
Am                      D     D7
I fall every time for this.

[Chorus]
 A           E         F#m
But love is trippy like that
               E                 D
Sometimes you think that you've got it
   A             D               E
Nobody's gonna trick you out of this one baby.

  A            E                 F#m
But love will slip through your hands.
            E            D          A
You never know how to hold it, control it,
       D           E          G   D  Em  G  C Am  G
Your gripping is tripping you up.
