[Verse 1]
Gm7 C7 Fmaj7
I've never been the kind to fall in love
Gm7 C7 Fmaj7
It's just me and a couple of fleas and that's all I want
Gm7 C7
Cause' I've got my back and my backs got me
F F7 D7
And I'm good as good can be
A#
Is what I thought
A#m Fmaj7
Until I met you
[Verse 2]
Fmaj7
As branches swayed in the autumn breeze
C7
Our amber eyes met between the leaves
C7
And somehow every sound around me
F F7 D7
Had broken into harmony
A# A#m Fmaj7 D7
I'd never heard a sweeter melody
[Chorus]
A# A#m
And I've been thinking for sometime
Fmaj7 D7
How to spend all these nine lives
A# A#m Fmaj7
I guess just maybe I could spend one on you
[Verse 3]
Gm7 C7 Fmaj7
I don't know why I feel the way I do
Gm7 C7 Fmaj7
My head's a little fuzzy and my feelings are all askew
Gm7 C7
But one thing I know is true
F F7 D7
Is that I'd go black and blue
A#
To see you through
A#m Fmaj7
Mmmmm
[Verse 4]
Fmaj7
Let's run away with our muddy paws
C7
In the rain and watch the clouds part ways
Csus4 C7
And as the stars beam down upon us
F F7 D7
D somber shadow moves again
A# A#m Fmaj7 D7
I never want this precious time to end
[Chorus]
A# A#m
And I've been thinking for sometime
Fmaj7 D7
How to spend all these nine lives
A# A#m Fmaj7 F7
I suppose I could use another one or two
[Instrumental]

[Bridge]
A# Gm7 C7
And in the moon's pale gaze
Fmaj7 D7
I ponder all those days
Gm7
I spent alone
C7 Fmaj7 F7
Mmmmmm
Gm7 C7
But now it's me and you
Fmaj7 D7
And there's nothing that we can't do
A# C7
And now you are around, we'll catch all the mice in town
[Verse 5]
Fmaj7
And as we lay in the warm sunrise
C7
Becoming freshly baked sunshine pies
Gm7 C7
I'll purr as sweet as a choir of angels
F F7 D7
And louder than a symphony
A# A#m Fmaj7 D7
Cause' there's no place I'd rather be
[Chorus]
A# A#m
And I've been thinking for sometime
Fmaj7 D7
How to spend all these nine lives
A# A#m Fmaj7 F7 D7
But maybe I could spend them on you
[Outro]
A# A#m Fmaj7 D7
Oh, just maybe one or two
A# A#m Fmaj7
I think I'd like to spend them on you
