C                      Em7
Through the darkness I see you again
C                     F
Watch my temperature rise
D7                 G
Can't believe my eyes, don't tell me
     D7           G      C
I've had way too much tonight

Drank the potion stronger than me
Got me all confused
Why you so amused, don't tell me
You've had way too much tonight

Chorus:
G#      D#     Fm7 A#  D#
Please don't  tell me no
G#   D# Fm7   A#  D#sus4 D#
God, I  miss you so
G#    D#   Fm7  A#     D#
One thing you should know
G#   D# Fm7  A#  D#sus4 D# D7 G
God, I love you so,        oh

Had way too much tonight

I'm a mad dog at times like these
Don't know where to turn
Ain't the time to learn my lesson
I've had way too much tonight

Ain't the time to learn my lesson
I've had way too much to-
Really too much to-
I've had way too much tonight

Alright
I've had way too much to-
Really too much to-
I've had way too much tonight
