[Verse 1]
Bm7 E7 Amaj7
I've never been the kind to fall in love
Bm7 E7 Amaj7
It's just me and a couple of fleas and that's all I want
Bm7 E7
Cause' I've got my back and my backs got me
A A7 F#7
And I'm good as good can be
D
Is what I thought
Dm Amaj7
Until I met you
[Verse 2]
Amaj7
As branches swayed in the autumn breeze
E7
Our amber eyes met between the leaves
E7
And somehow every sound around me
A A7 F#7
Had broken into harmony
D Dm Amaj7 F#7
I'd never heard a sweeter melody
[Chorus]
D Dm
And I've been thinking for sometime
Amaj7 F#7
How to spend all these nine lives
D Dm Amaj7
I guess just maybe I could spend one on you
[Verse 3]
Bm7 E7 Amaj7
I don't know why I feel the way I do
Bm7 E7 Amaj7
My head's a little fuzzy and my feelings are all askew
Bm7 E7
But one thing I know is true
A A7 F#7
Is that I'd go black and blue
D
To see you through
Dm Amaj7
Mmmmm
[Verse 4]
Amaj7
Let's run away with our muddy paws
E7
In the rain and watch the clouds part ways
Esus4 E7
And as the stars beam down upon us
A A7 F#7
F# somber shadow moves again
D Dm Amaj7 F#7
I never want this precious time to end
[Chorus]
D Dm
And I've been thinking for sometime
Amaj7 F#7
How to spend all these nine lives
D Dm Amaj7 A7
I suppose I could use another one or two
[Instrumental]

[Bridge]
D Bm7 E7
And in the moon's pale gaze
Amaj7 F#7
I ponder all those days
Bm7
I spent alone
E7 Amaj7 A7
Mmmmmm
Bm7 E7
But now it's me and you
Amaj7 F#7
And there's nothing that we can't do
D E7
And now you are around, we'll catch all the mice in town
[Verse 5]
Amaj7
And as we lay in the warm sunrise
E7
Becoming freshly baked sunshine pies
Bm7 E7
I'll purr as sweet as a choir of angels
A A7 F#7
And louder than a symphony
D Dm Amaj7 F#7
Cause' there's no place I'd rather be
[Chorus]
D Dm
And I've been thinking for sometime
Amaj7 F#7
How to spend all these nine lives
D Dm Amaj7 A7 F#7
But maybe I could spend them on you
[Outro]
D Dm Amaj7 F#7
Oh, just maybe one or two
D Dm Amaj7
I think I'd like to spend them on you
