[Verse 1]
[C]I've had my [G]way with so many girls
[C]And it [G]was lots of [C]fun
My scheme [F]was to know [A]many girls
[E]To keep me safe [B]from one[E]
[A]I find [D]it can't be [G]done
My [D]de fenses are down
[C]She's [Dm]broken my resist[C]ance
And I [Am]don't know [D]where [G]I am
I went into [Am]the fight like [F]a lion
But I [C]came out [Ebdim]like a lamb[Dm]
[G]My de[Dm]fenses are [C]down
She's [D]got me where she wants [C]me
And I [Am]can 't escape,
[D]no [G]how I could speak [Am]to my heart when it [F]wakened
But [Dm]my heart [G]won't listen, [C]no
Like [Eb]a toothless, flawless ti[Ab]ger
Like [Eb]an organ grinder's [Ab]bear
Like [C]a knight [Fm]without his [C]armor
Like [Am]Samson [D]without his [F]hair
[G]My [D]de fenses are down
[C]I m[D]ight as well surr[C]ender
For the [F]battle can't be [Bb]won
[A]But [Faug]I must c[A]onfe[D]ss that I like[C] it
So [Dm]there's nothing [G]to be [C]done
[A]Yes, I must [D]confess that I like [C]it
Be[G]ing miserable's gonna be fun
[C]His[Ab] defenses a[Ebm]re down,
[Db]she's brok[Ebm]en his resista[Db]nce
and [Bbm]he's in an [Eb]awful jam
[Ab]I went[F] into [Bbm]the fight like a lion[Gb]
But you [Db]came [Bbm]out like a la[Eb]m b[Ab]
My defenses [Ebm]are do[Db]wn
She's [Ebm]got you where she [Db]wants you
and you [Bbm]can't es[Eb]cape,
no [Ab]how I c[F]ould s[Bbm]peak to my heart when [Gb]it wakened
But your [Ebm]heart won't listen [Db]now
Like a toothless, [E]claw[A]less tiger
Like an [E]organ grinder'[A]s bear
Like a [C#]knight without his armor
Like Sam[Bbm]son wi[Eb]thout his ha[G#]ir
My [Eb]defenses are [C#]down
I might as well surrender
Therefore the battle [F#]can be

[Verse 2]
[F]won
[Bbaug]But I

[Verse 3]
[Eb]must confess that I [C#]like it
[E]So [G#]there's nothing to be

[Verse 4]
[C#]done
[Bbaug]Yes, I mu[Bb]st conf[Eb]ess that[C#] I

[Verse 5]
like it
Being miser[G#]able is

[Verse 6]
gonna [Cdim]be fun[C#]
Fight!
