        Am                C           Em
T'ain't no big thing, to wait for the bell to ring,
        Am                 G           Em
T'ain't no big thing, the toll of the bell,
    Am                     C     Em
Aggravated, spare for days,   I troll downtown, the red light place,
 Am
Jump up, bubble up, what's in store?
G    Em
    Love is the drug, and I need to score!


  Am
Showing out, showing out, hit and run,
C   Em
    Boy meets girl where the beat goes on,
  Bm
Stitched up tight, can't shake free,
D   Em
    Love is the drug got a hook on me!


Am                            C    Em
Oh, oh -oh, catch that buzz,      love is the drug I'm thinking of,

 Am                           C   Em
Late at night, I park my car,    stake my place in the singles bar,
 Am                       G   Em
Face to face, toe to toe,    heart to heart, as we hit the floor,
 Am                    C      Em
Lumber up, limbo down,   the locked embrace, stumble 'round,
Am
 I say, "Go!", she say, "Yes!"
G   Em
    Dim the lights... you can guess the rest!
