VERSE
Ab/C Db Eb Fm
The book of love is long and boring

No one can lift the damn thing

But I

I love it when you read to me
Ab Ab/Ab
And you
Ab/C Db Eb Ab
You can read me anything
VERSE

The book of love has music in it
Ab/C Db Eb Ab
In fact that's where music comes from

Some of it's just transcendental
Ab/C Db Eb Fm
Some of it's just really dumb
CHORUS

But I
Ab Db/Ab Eb/Ab Ab
I love it when you sing to me

And you

You can sing me anything

And things we're all too young to know
CHORUS
