And after i got home alone,
B
I couldn't stop drunk dialing your cellular phone.
B
And when you don't pick up, your hang up hurts.
D#m
I know i got caught with my hand up her skirt.
E
I'm into sandals with the candle light romance,
(
B)\
I go to itunes, to download your slow jams.
[Verse]

Typhoon, with the Thunder clap.

B
You and i can flow and say i love sailing.

Light brown elleby on Chip and dale.

Pet snail, i got a freak on her knees.
B
I need a little more made of the American Dream.
B
I want her fired up, yea baby don't try to tie me up.
D#m
I'm just not the type of guy that'd wanna lie to ya.

And i won't budge for a minute now.
