E C#m
Girl I know we just had the talk

And I've been on my side of town, just laying low

Like you could set off that fire alarm
E C#m G#m
And one little drink won't hurt but don't you know
Chorus
E C#m G#m
Girl we're lightning striking matches
B E
That's what always happens
C#m G#m B
When we get too close
E C#m G#m

Whisper baby dream on
C#m G#m
Then the whiskey hits the coke
B E C#m G#m B
Next thing you know we're going up in smoke
verse 2
