Intro: C#m F#m A B - x2

     C#m                 F#m
The club isn’t the best place to find a lover
        A              B
So the bar is where I go,
C#m                      F#m
Me and my friends at the table doing shots,
          A                      B
Drinking fast and then we talk slow,
         C#m
You come over and start up
        F#m
A conversation with just me
      A                       B
And trust me I’ll give it a chance.
             C#m
Now take my hand, stop,
            F#m
Put Van the Man on the jukebox
      A               B
And then we start to dance.
And now I’m singing like,

C#m              F#m
Girl, you know I want your love,
A                       B                C#m
Your love was handmade for somebody like me,
             F#m
Come on now, follow my lead,
A                B
I may be crazy, don’t mind me,
     C#m            F#m
Say, boy, let’s not talk too much,
  A                   B               C#m
Grab on my waist and put that body on me,
             F#m
Come on now, follow my lead,
       A
Come, come on now, follow my lead, mmm.

Chorus:
  C#m       F#m                     A
     I’m in love with the shape of you,
                  B                 C#m
     We push and pull like a magnet do,
                 F#m               A
     Although my heart is falling too,
             B                C#m
     I’m in love with your body.
              F#m                   A
     And last night you were in my room,
                 B                    C#m
     And now my bedsheets smell like you,
                       F#m                  A
     Every day discovering something brand new,
                 B                C#m
     Oh, I’m in love with your body,
                        F#m
     (Oh, why, oh, why, oh, why, oh, why.)
  A              B                C#m
     Oh, I’m in love with your body,
                        F#m
     (Oh, why, oh, why, oh, why, oh, why.)
  A              B                C#m
     Oh, I’m in love with your body,
                        F#m
     (Oh, why, oh, why, oh, why, oh, why.)
  A              B                C#m
     Oh, I’m in love with your body,
                       F#m                  A
     Every day discovering something brand new,
             B                      C#m
     I’m in love with the shape of you.

                         F#m
One week in we let the story begin
            A                 B
We're going out on our first date
         C#m                  F#m
You and me are thrifty, so go all you can eat
              A                    B
Fill up your bag and I fill up a plate
             C#m
We talk for hours and hours
            F#m
About the sweet and the sour
              A                B
And how your family is doing okay
           C#m
Leave and get in a taxi,
                  F#m
Then kiss in the backseat
           A                     B
Tell the driver make the radio play,
And I'm singing like

C#m              F#m
Girl, you know I want your love,
A                       B                C#m
Your love was handmade for somebody like me,
             F#m
Come on now, follow my lead,
A                B
I may be crazy, don’t mind me,
     C#m            F#m
Say, boy, let’s not talk too much,
  A                   B               C#m
Grab on my waist and put that body on me,
             F#m
Come on now, follow my lead,
       A
Come, come on now, follow my lead, mmm.

Chorus:
  C#m       F#m                     A
     I’m in love with the shape of you,
                  B                 C#m
     We push and pull like a magnet do,
                 F#m               A
     Although my heart is falling too,
             B                C#m
     I’m in love with your body.
              F#m                   A
     And last night you were in my room,

     And now my bedsheets smell like you,

     Oh, I’m in love with your body,

   Come on, be my baby, come on,
C#m               F#m
