G I don't care if you never come home, C I don't mind if you just keep on G rolling away on a distant sea, D G cause I don't love you and you don't love me. You cause a commotion when you come to town You give them a smile and they melt Having lovers and friends is all good and fine But I don't like yours and you don't like mine I don't care what you do at night Oh, and I don't care how you get your delights I will leave you alone, I will just let it be I don't love you and you don't love me Chorus: C G/B I got a problem can you relate? Am7 G I got a woman calling love hate. C G/B We made a vow we'd always be friends. Am7 G How could we know that promises end? I tried to love you for years upon years You refuse to take me for real It's time you saw what I want you to see And I would still love you, if you'd just love me Chorus: I got a problem. Can you relate? I got a woman calling love hate We made a vow we'd always be friends How could we know that promises end?
