Chewing Gum

	  		
 
 


Em 
Before you jump in 

Tryna' get under my skin 
                   C     
Something I should let you know 
Am 
It's gonna be impossible 

Em 
Cause I'm a made up mess 

In a backless dress 
              C 
I don't wanna lead you on 
Am 
Cause I'd only do you wrong, oh oh 


Em 
You can have my heart 

But you're not gonna leave with it 
C 
Lying in the dark 
     Am 
Yeah you almost believed in it 
Em 
You've got me wrong 
             C    
I've got you hanging round my neck 
       Am 
Saying romance isn't dead 


Em 
Oh, you know that I'm down for whatever 
    C                      Am  
But oh, I told you that it won't be forever 
Em 
Oh, how come you still think that you're the one 
      C                      Am 
Baby, I'm just chewing gum until the flavour's gone 
Em 
Oh oh oh, ah ah 
C                      Am ...  
I'm just chewing gum until the flavour's gone 


   ... Em 
Let me tell you straight 

I could be your worst mistake 
                     C 
Or you could get the best of me 
                 Am 
Forget about the rest of me 


Em 
With your cigarette 

In between your teeth 
          C 
You could light me up 
        Am 
If I forget to breathe, oh oh 


Em 
You can have my heart 

But you're not gonna leave with it 
C 
Lying in the dark 
     Am 
Yeah you almost believed in it 
Em 
You've got me wrong 
             C    
I've got you tied up in the bed 
           Am 
Screaming romance isn't dead 


Em 
Oh, you know that I'm down for whatever 
    C                      Am  
But oh, I told you that it won't be forever 
Em 
Oh, how come you still think that you're the one 
      C                      Am 
Baby, I'm just chewing gum until the flavour's gone 
Em 
Oh oh oh, ah ah 
C                      Am

Em 
Oh oh oh, ah ah 
C                      Am 
I'm just chewing gum until the flavour's gone (gone) 
Em 
Oh oh oh, ah ah 
C                      Am 
I'm just chewing gum until the flavour's gone 


C     D   
Yeah, you're stuck on me 
              Em 
Now I can't move 

Give it just a night 
                    C 
And I'll cut you loose 
D                   Bm 
Oh what a thing to do, yeah

    C *                   Am * 
Oh oh, I told you that it won't be forever 
Em (lightly strum) 
So how come you still think that you're the one 
C                                                    Em ... (normal strumming)
