A                     E                       Bm7
This is a simple song, gonna write it for a friend
                                            A
My shirt is inside out, I'm messy with the pen
                      E                Bm7
He met Margaret on a rooftop, she was wearin' white
                                  A
And he was like, "I might be in trouble"
                       E
He had flashes of the good life, he was like
Bm7
"Shall I jump off this building now or do it on
the double?"

A        E                         Bm
'Cause, baby, if your love is in trouble
                           A
Baby, if your love is in trouble
 E                         Bm7   E
Baby, if your love is in trouble

Chorus:
A                    E
When you know, you know
Bm7
When you know, you know
    E              A
It kinda makes me laugh
                   E
Runnin' down that path
                       Bm7
When you're good, it's gold
                            A
'Cause when you know, you know

Words aren't my friends
But they're red flags, they're white knights
They're black eyes and they're blue lies
If you're askin' yourself, "How do you know?"
Then that's your answer, the answer is "No"
You gotta run, gotta run, run, run, run
like your head's on fire
Run away like your head is on fire

'Cause, baby, if your love isn't trouble
Baby, if your love isn't trouble
Baby, if your love isn't trouble

Chorus:
A                    E
When you know, you know
Bm7
When you know, you know
                   A
It kinda makes me laugh
                   E
Runnin' down that path
                       Bm7
When you're good, it's gold
                            A
'Cause when you know, you know
                            E
And when you're old, you're old
                   Bm7
Like Hollywood and me
                    Bm7
The diamond on your ring
     E                          A
The song that you bring to the table
                       E Bm7 C#m D E
The one that makes me sing
            F#m D E
In a minor key
                           A
'Cause when you know, you know
                   Bm7
When you know, you know

A                      E
So if you don't know, don't give up
           Bm7
'Cause you never know what the new day might bring

A E                    Bm7
Maybe tomorrow you'll know
                        A
Maybe tomorrow you'll know
                      Bm7
Maybe tomorrow you'll know
I mean, join the party
A          E                      Bm7
By the way, the party is December 18
(Hey, let's waltz this out, 'cause)

Chorus:
                            A
'Cause when you know, you know
                            E
And when you're old, you're old
                   Bm7
Like Hollywood and me
                     Bm7
That diamond on your ring
                                A
The song that you bring to the table
                       E Bm7 C#m D E
The one that makes me sing
           F#m D
In a minor key
                 Bm7 E
Diamond on your ring
                            A
'Cause when you know, you know
                    Bm7  D
When you know, you know
