G
And time waits for no man but you
And time waits for no man but you
Hold on and don't leave this town
Hold on and don't leave this town

Bm
There we are
D
We're that in our hands
Bm
They tear you down
D
Cause they don't understand
Bm
You tried it once again
D
To love me better
Bm
She tore those panties down
D
Love me better

Chorus:
A         Em7
Woo oh oh oh
          B         A#         A
And life comes and twos and threes and fours
G         Em7
Woo oh oh oh
        Bm
And I hear you knocking at my door

To hold them down with blood on your hands
Is past the point where you don't understand
The worst you do is lie when you run for shelter
So cast aside these chains and love me better

Chorus:
Oh, woah-oh-oh
And life comes in twos and threes and fours
Oh, woah-oh-oh
And I hear you knocking at my door
Oh, woah-oh-oh
And life comes in twos and threes and fours
Oh, woah-oh-oh
And I hear you knocking at my door

I hear you knocking at my door, darling, twenty times or more
I hear you knocking at my door, darling, twenty times or more
I hear you knocking at my door, darling, twenty times or more
I hear you knocking at my door, darling, twenty times or more
