And I love the way you can't say "No"
Too many long lines in a row
I love the powder on your nose

I like the freckles on your chest
And I like the way you like me best
And I like the way you're not impressed
While you put me to the test

Verse 4 (keep pn playing sth same chords)

I like the white stains on your dress
I love the way you pass the check
And I love the good times that you wreck
And I love your lack of self respect
While you're passed out on the deck
I love my hands around your neck
