[Verse 1]
Dm7 G7 Cmaj7
I've never been the kind to fall in love
Dm7 G7 Cmaj7
It's just me and a couple of fleas and that's all I want
Dm7 G7
Cause' I've got my back and my backs got me
C C7 A7
And I'm good as good can be
F
Is what I thought
Fm Cmaj7
Until I met you
[Verse 2]
Cmaj7
As branches swayed in the autumn breeze
G7
Our amber eyes met between the leaves
G7
And somehow every sound around me
C C7 A7
Had broken into harmony
F Fm Cmaj7 A7
I'd never heard a sweeter melody
[Chorus]
F Fm
And I've been thinking for sometime
Cmaj7 A7
How to spend all these nine lives
F Fm Cmaj7
I guess just maybe I could spend one on you
[Verse 3]
Dm7 G7 Cmaj7
I don't know why I feel the way I do
Dm7 G7 Cmaj7
My head's a little fuzzy and my feelings are all askew
Dm7 G7
But one thing I know is true
C C7 A7
Is that I'd go black and blue
F
To see you through
Fm Cmaj7
Mmmmm
[Verse 4]
Cmaj7
Let's run away with our muddy paws
G7
In the rain and watch the clouds part ways
Gsus4 G7
And as the stars beam down upon us
C C7 A7
A somber shadow moves again
F Fm Cmaj7 A7
I never want this precious time to end
[Chorus]
F Fm
And I've been thinking for sometime
Cmaj7 A7
How to spend all these nine lives
F Fm Cmaj7 C7
I suppose I could use another one or two
[Instrumental]

[Bridge]
F Dm7 G7
And in the moon's pale gaze
Cmaj7 A7
I ponder all those days
Dm7
I spent alone
G7 Cmaj7 C7
Mmmmmm
Dm7 G7
But now it's me and you
Cmaj7 A7
And there's nothing that we can't do
F G7
And now you are around, we'll catch all the mice in town
[Verse 5]
Cmaj7
And as we lay in the warm sunrise
G7
Becoming freshly baked sunshine pies
Dm7 G7
I'll purr as sweet as a choir of angels
C C7 A7
And louder than a symphony
F Fm Cmaj7 A7
Cause' there's no place I'd rather be
[Chorus]
F Fm
And I've been thinking for sometime
Cmaj7 A7
How to spend all these nine lives
F Fm Cmaj7 C7 A7
But maybe I could spend them on you
[Outro]
F Fm Cmaj7 A7
Oh, just maybe one or two
F Fm Cmaj7
I think I'd like to spend them on you
