G C She was doing 60 in a 35 G I hit the lights and pulled her over C When I reached the window of the driver side G There was blood from her mouth, dry on her shoulder G C I've never had much patience for guys that hit G For more than just obvious reasons C I asked if she wanted me to take him in G She laughed it off like lemonade Chorus: Em7 G D When you're in love, you can be blinded by your own heart Em7 Am7 You'll bend your own truth, so twisted up you could justify sin C D Em7 And when people in love are desperate enough to abandon their dreams C D G C People do desperate things I've been taking lunch breaks at her work When the restaurant ain't too crowded She knows me and my wife got a little girl We don't talk too much about it The other night, she met me way out west Things went further than they should have But when she undid the buttons of her dress I didn't stop her, but I could have Chorus: When you're in love, you can be blinded by your own heart You'll bend your own truth, so twisted up, you could justify sin And when people in love are desperate enough to abandon their dreams People do desperate things I know where he drinks most every night It's our local hero sports bar I've got him cuffed and sweating cold In the back of my patrol car You forget how dark the canyon gets It's a real uneasy feeling I've never had much patience for guys who hit For more than just obvious reasons Chorus: When you're in love, you can be blinded by your own heart You'll bend your own truth, so twisted up, you could justify sin And when people in love are desperate enough to abandon their dreams People do desperate things | TransposeReset Font sizeReset Ukulele Chord DiagramsAm  Am7  C  D  Em  Em7  F#  G  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each ukulele chord used in the song.
