You Can't Take Love For Granted Lyrics - Graham Parker

Pre> 

Intro am g (twice) 

Verse 

Dm am g am 

Took her to a party and danced with the host 

Took her to a restaurant and treat her like a ghost 

Took her to a movie and looked at another screen 

Paid for entertainment she'd already seen 

Bridge 

Bm g d a 

I get so hungry, I'm eating my heart out 

Bm g d a 

Oooh I felt it go empty I'm wondering what I can be thinking about

Chorus 1 

Dm am g am 

But you can't take love for granted, underneath another skin 

Dm am g am 

Can't take love for granted, up behind another grin 

Demonstrated passion in a grip hard to shake 

Took up every fashion till everything went fake 

Pulled a coat over her shoulder, cracked a joke over and over 

Watch the rain turn the night colder, stared into the headlight beam 

Bridge 

I get so wired I'm making all the wrong connections 

And I get so tired I'm picking up bad affections 

Repeat chorus 1 

Chorus 2 

Can't take love for granted, can't take love for granted, 

Can't take love for granted, can't take love for granted,

Instrumental section on bridge chords, then intro repeat 

Watch the swans out on the lake, circle circle circle (circle circle) 

Talk and talk and talk around it (circle circle) 

Repeat chorus 1 then chorus 2 then chorus 1 twice (fade) /pre>
