E             C#m             F#m
Baby, I don't need to look far
              B                     E
Everywhere I turn there, there you are
                C#m             F#m
Somebody should sound the alarm
                        B
'Cause when you try to get me alone, you
A              E
Talk to me in riddles
      A                B
You treat me like a crime

Chorus:
A           E      B
I know you have a girlfriend
So don't kiss me on the lips
A           E      B
I know you have a girlfriend
Oh, don't you tell me what I did
A           E      B
I know you have a girlfriend
                     A
And every time you speak
        B
You're lying through your te-te-te-teeth
A           E      B
I know you have a girlfriend
And I hear she's kinda nice
A           E      B
I know you have a girlfriend
So don't give me those eyes
A           E      B
I know you have a girlfriend
                      A
Oh, won't you let me be?
     B
I'm begging you, stop begging me

Tiptoeing around all the facts
Tease me 'til I laugh and I relax
I know there's a reason for that
'Cause you've been trying to get me alone

And talk to me in riddles
You cover me in rhymes

Chorus

A E B
     You're sick with dreams about it
A E B
     Didn't I, didn't I blush?
A E B                            C       D       E
    I think, I think, I think I want it way too much

Chorus:
I know you have a girlfriend
(And it cuts me like a knife)
I know you have a girlfriend
(Is she gonna be your wife?)
I know you have a girlfriend
And every time you speak
You're lying through your te-te-teeth
I know you have a girlfriend
(Tell me, where is she tonight?)
I know you have a girlfriend
('Cause I heard you had a fight)
I know you have a girlfriend
Oh, won't you let me be?
I'm begging you, stop begging me

I know you have (I'm begging you, stop begging me)
I know you have
I know you have a girlfriend
