Lyrics
LOVE ISN'T DUMB
I been unfolding the map too many times G C D
The way to your heart it's elusive, there ain't many signs
You're like a mirage you flicker and then you go hide Am F C
I'm left to suck up the pain right through the night Am F D D7
Love isn't dumb it's a sting C
It's a spin off the road to a ditch G
It's a car driving by and leaving you there Bm D
To the sun that burns a hole in your head Am C
If I could just bury your image and walk proud away
Lay a false trail and go play you at your own game
But no I'm the pilgrim bent down kissing your feet
Wanting to call out your name to the whole of the street
Yeah all of the day you're a stake in my brain F
And I'm wanting your scent in a basic way Am
Do I have to break like a rolling car G
Soaking down pain in gasoline balm Bm D
Love isn't dumb it's a sting (single strum)
It's a spin off the road to a ditch
It's a car driving by and leaving you there
To the sun that burns a hole in your head
Love isn't dumb it's a sting
It's a spin off the road to a ditch
It's a car driving by and leaving you there
To the sun that burns a hole in your head
