Intro:

| bass riff | Bbm Db Ab | riff 1 | Bbm Db Ab | riff 2 |

Verse:

Bbm Db Ab riff 1
You wrap your arms around
Bbm Db Ab riff 2
A feeling that surrounds
Bbm Db Ab riff 1
Like liquid peppermint
Bbm Db Ab
Just taste the drinks that she served
Bbm Db Ab
And this feeling shimmers down your spine
Bbm Db Ab
Love comes in colors I can't deny
Bbm Db Ab bass riff
All that matters is love, love, your love

Bbm Db Ab riff 2
You're sleeping in your bed
Bbm Db Ab riff 1
Just rest your weary head
Bbm Db Ab riff 2
Maybe you shouldn't care
Bbm Db Ab
Throw away those dreams and dare

Solo (kind of; there is some singing over this):
