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

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