[Verse 1]
C#m7 F#7 Bmaj7
I've never been the kind to fall in love
C#m7 F#7 Bmaj7
It's just me and a couple of fleas and that's all I want
C#m7 F#7
Cause' I've got my back and my backs got me
B B7 G#7
And I'm good as good can be
E
Is what I thought
Em Bmaj7
Until I met you
[Verse 2]
Bmaj7
As branches swayed in the autumn breeze
F#7
Our amber eyes met between the leaves
F#7
And somehow every sound around me
B B7 G#7
Had broken into harmony
E Em Bmaj7 G#7
I'd never heard a sweeter melody
[Chorus]
E Em
And I've been thinking for sometime
Bmaj7 G#7
How to spend all these nine lives
E Em Bmaj7
I guess just maybe I could spend one on you
[Verse 3]
C#m7 F#7 Bmaj7
I don't know why I feel the way I do
C#m7 F#7 Bmaj7
My head's a little fuzzy and my feelings are all askew
C#m7 F#7
But one thing I know is true
B B7 G#7
Is that I'd go black and blue
E
To see you through
Em Bmaj7
Mmmmm
[Verse 4]
Bmaj7
Let's run away with our muddy paws
F#7
In the rain and watch the clouds part ways
F#sus4 F#7
And as the stars beam down upon us
B B7 G#7
G# somber shadow moves again
E Em Bmaj7 G#7
I never want this precious time to end
[Chorus]
E Em
And I've been thinking for sometime
Bmaj7 G#7
How to spend all these nine lives
E Em Bmaj7 B7
I suppose I could use another one or two
[Instrumental]

[Bridge]
E C#m7 F#7
And in the moon's pale gaze
Bmaj7 G#7
I ponder all those days
C#m7
I spent alone
F#7 Bmaj7 B7
Mmmmmm
C#m7 F#7
But now it's me and you
Bmaj7 G#7
And there's nothing that we can't do
E F#7
And now you are around, we'll catch all the mice in town
[Verse 5]
Bmaj7
And as we lay in the warm sunrise
F#7
Becoming freshly baked sunshine pies
C#m7 F#7
I'll purr as sweet as a choir of angels
B B7 G#7
And louder than a symphony
E Em Bmaj7 G#7
Cause' there's no place I'd rather be
[Chorus]
E Em
And I've been thinking for sometime
Bmaj7 G#7
How to spend all these nine lives
E Em Bmaj7 B7 G#7
But maybe I could spend them on you
[Outro]
E Em Bmaj7 G#7
Oh, just maybe one or two
E Em Bmaj7
I think I'd like to spend them on you
