C
Love is a drug, and you are my cigarette
Love is addiction, and you are my Nicorette
Love is a drug, like chocolate, like cigarettes
I'm feeling sick, I've gotta medicate myself up
Ah
I want your love, don't try and stop me
Can't get enough, still hanging on me
Your guilty heart, don't let it break you
And if you pray, well no one's gonna save you

C                       G                            Am
Like everyone that you fear and everything you hold dear
                       F
Even the book in your pocket
Am                       F                           g
You are the sun and the light, you are the freedom I fight
God will do nothing to stop it

               C G Am F
The origin is you
                      C  G Am F
You're the origin of love

Love is a drug, and you are my cigarette
Love is addiction, and you are my Nicorette
Love is a drug, like chocolate, like cigarettes
I'm feeling sick, I've gotta medicate myself

Well, if God is a priest, and the devil a slut
Well that's a reason for nothing
Like every word that you preach
Like every word that you teach
With every rule that you breach
You know the origin is you

                 G                     Am
From the air I breathe, to the love I need
               F                         C
Only thing I know, you're the origin of love
               G                 Am
From the God above to the one I love
                    F                  C
Only thing that's true, the origin is you

From the air I breathe, to the love I need
Only thing I know, you're the origin of love
From the God above, to the one I love
Only thing that's true, the origin is you

Some love's a pill, and some love is a candy cane
It tastes so sweet, but leaves you feeling sick with pain
Your love is air, I breathe it in around me
Don't know it's there, but without it I'm drowning
You're the origin of love
Ay-oh-ay-oh-ah

You're the origin of love, love, love, love, love
(Thank God that you found me)
You're the origin of love, love, love, love, love
(Thank God that you found me)
You're the origin of love, love, love, love, love
(Thank God that you found me)
You're the origin of love, love, love, love, love
(Thank God that you found me)
You're the origin of love, love, love, love, love
(Thank God that you found me)
You're the origin of love, love, love, love, love
Thank God that you found me
Thank God that you found me
Thank God that you found me
