Intro

Verse 1

we lie in the same bed

as far apart as two could get

I know that you're bored with me

'cuz you shut your eyes when I speak

I want to make you happy

but I wish that you would tell me what you want from me

Chorus

come on teach me to love you right

'cuz baby you are my life

Verse 2

same as verse 1)

next morning you're pouring coffee

and we sit in silence while we eat

I wish I could stand up and say

that I dread leaving the house everyday

'cuz I fear that when I return you'll be gone

tired of me always meaning right but always doing wrong

Chorus

same, but play 2x)

come on teach me to love you right

cuz baby you are my life

come on teach me to love you right

if it takes all night

Bridge

no it's nothing that you say to me

it's just the clues that are left

you used to stay up late and wait up for me

but now you're early to bed

no kiss hello, no "how was your day?"

no, you're fast asleep

and I know as I watch you there you don't dream of me

Last Chorus (female singer)

teach me to love you right

(Val joins in)

'cuz baby you are my life

end on F
