[Verse 1]
D#m7 G#7 C#maj7
I've never been the kind to fall in love
D#m7 G#7 C#maj7
It's just me and a couple of fleas and that's all I want
D#m7 G#7
Cause' I've got my back and my backs got me
C# C#7 A#7
And I'm good as good can be
F#
Is what I thought
F#m C#maj7
Until I met you
[Verse 2]
C#maj7
As branches swayed in the autumn breeze
G#7
Our amber eyes met between the leaves
G#7
And somehow every sound around me
C# C#7 A#7
Had broken into harmony
F# F#m C#maj7 A#7
I'd never heard a sweeter melody
[Chorus]
F# F#m
And I've been thinking for sometime
C#maj7 A#7
How to spend all these nine lives
F# F#m C#maj7
I guess just maybe I could spend one on you
[Verse 3]
D#m7 G#7 C#maj7
I don't know why I feel the way I do
D#m7 G#7 C#maj7
My head's a little fuzzy and my feelings are all askew
D#m7 G#7
But one thing I know is true
C# C#7 A#7
Is that I'd go black and blue
F#
To see you through
F#m C#maj7
Mmmmm
[Verse 4]
C#maj7
Let's run away with our muddy paws
G#7
In the rain and watch the clouds part ways
G#sus4 G#7
And as the stars beam down upon us
C# C#7 A#7
A# somber shadow moves again
F# F#m C#maj7 A#7
I never want this precious time to end
[Chorus]
F# F#m
And I've been thinking for sometime
C#maj7 A#7
How to spend all these nine lives
F# F#m C#maj7 C#7
I suppose I could use another one or two

[Bridge]
F# D#m7 G#7
And in the moon's pale gaze
C#maj7 A#7
I ponder all those days
D#m7
I spent alone
G#7 C#maj7 C#7
Mmmmmm
D#m7 G#7
But now it's me and you
C#maj7 A#7
And there's nothing that we can't do
F# G#7
And now you are around, we'll catch all the mice in town
[Verse 5]
C#maj7
And as we lay in the warm sunrise
G#7
Becoming freshly baked sunshine pies
D#m7 G#7
I'll purr as sweet as a choir of angels
C# C#7 A#7
And louder than a symphony
F# F#m C#maj7 A#7
Cause' there's no place I'd rather be
[Chorus]
F# F#m
And I've been thinking for sometime
C#maj7 A#7
How to spend all these nine lives
F# F#m C#maj7 C#7 A#7
But maybe I could spend them on you
[Outro]
F# F#m C#maj7 A#7
Oh, just maybe one or two
F# F#m C#maj7
I think I'd like to spend them on you
