D                      Em            G              D
I was slicing up an avocado when you came up behind me

D                         Em               G                  D
With your quiet brand new sneakers, your reflection I did not see

D                         Em                 G               D
It was the hottest day in August and we were heading for the sea

D                            Em                                  
For a second my mind started drifting, 

             G           D       A      Em       
you put your arms around me

             G           D       A      Em     
You put your arms around me, 

             G
You put your arms around


What's spraying on the kitchen sink
What's this I have time to think
I see the tip of my index finger
My mind is slowly creating a link
From your mouth speaks your lovely voice
The best comments I've ever heard
Oh honey you've cut off your finger
I bet that gonna hurt
You put your arms around me
You put your arms around me
You put your arms around


I must have passed out on the porch
I'd never seen so many bright stars
When I wake up I'm in the waiting room A
At the local ER
My hand is wrapped in toilet paper 
And my shirt's all blood red
I see you standing there like an angel
And I say “Baby I  must be dead”
You put your arms around me
You put your arms around me
You put your arms around
