and I'm tryin' hard not to talk fast
                               LA7+/DO#           SI
But dad I'm finally thinkin' I may have found the one
                                MI
Type of girl that will make you way proud of your son
DO#m                      SI
 And I know you heard the last song 
          MI                        
about the girls that didn't last long

 I love it when she calls my phone
                 MI               FA#m
She even got her very own ringtone
              LA7+/DO#
If that ain't love 
             SI             MI
then I don't know what love is (ba ba da da)
DO#m                  SI/RE#
 It's gonna be a long drive home 
              MI                   FA#m
but I know as soon as I arrive home
      SOL#m    LA
And I open the door take off my coat 
             DO#m/SOL#
and throw my bag on the floor
          MI
She'll be back into my arms once more for sure...

DO#m            LA7+   SOL#5

DO#m
 She's got a smile that would make the most senile

Annoying old man bite his tongue

I'm not done
LA7+
 She's got eyes comparable to sunrise
       SOL#5
And it doesn't stop there

Man I swear
      DO#m
She's got porcelain skin of course she's a ten

And now she's even got her own song

But movin' on
              LA7+
She's got the cutest laugh I ever heard
                     SOL#5
And we can be on the phone for three hours

Not sayin' one word
            DO#m
And I would still cherish every moment

And when I start to build my future 

she's the main component
                     LA7+
Call it dumb call it luck call it love 

or whatever you call it but
SOL#m        MI            FA#m
Everywhere I go I keep her picture 
      RE#m7/5-    DO#m
in my wallet like here

                  SI6
Take a look at my girlfriend
LA7+                             
She's the only one I got (ba ba da da)
SI DO#m           SI6
    Not much of a girlfriend
  LA7+                                        SI      
I never seem to get a lot (ba ba da da, ba ba da da)
DO#m               SI6
 Take a look at my girlfriend
LA7+                             
She's the only one I got (ba ba da da)
SI DO#m           SI6

Cupid's Chokehold è un brano composto e inciso dai Gym Class Heroes, contenuto nell'album The Papercut Chronicles pubblicato nel 2005. Secondo lavoro in studio per la band statunitense, è in realtà il loro primo vero progetto discografico professionale... ...For the Kids del 2001 si rivela un flop. La canzone, invece, è la loro hit più fortunata: nata in poche ore in una camera da letto, prende in prestito il ritornello di Breakfast in America dei Supertramp (1979).
