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
