Version 1---------------------------------------------------------------------------- LOVER I DON'T HAVE TO LOVE - Bright Eyes ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: David Email: Tuning:Standard NOTE: this isn't intended to be an accurate transcription of the song. The real song is played on a keyboard and it sounds like crap when played on a guitar. My version is real easy to play, and it sounds great on guitar. You just have to figure out a strumming pattern. Email me if u got any questions or comments. Thanks.

Am G So it's up the stairs C F And out of view, no prying eyes Am G I poured some wine C F E I asked your name you asked the time Am G Now it's two o'clock, C F the club is closed we're up the block Am G Your hands on me C F Pressing hard against your jeans Am G Your tongue in my mouth C F Trying to keep the words from coming out Am G You didn't care to know C F E Who else may have been you before (the rest of the song follows the same pattern. I'm too lazy to do the rest :p) [Verse 2] (same as verse 1) I want a lover I don't have to love I want a girl who's to sad to give a fuck Where's the kid with the chemicals? I thought he said to meet me here but I'm not sure I got the money if you got the time You said it feels good I said I'll give it a try Then my mind went dark We both forgot where your car was parked Let's just take the train I'll meet up with the band in the morning Bad actors with bad habits Some sad singers They just play tragic And the phone's ringing And the van's leaving Let's just keep touching Let's just keep keep singing I want a lover I don't have to love I want a boy who's so drunk he doesn't talk Where's the kid with the chemicals I got a hunger and I can't seem to get full I need some meaning I can memorize The kind I have always seems to slip my mind But you but you You write such pretty words But life's no story book Love is an excuse to get hurt And to hurt "Do you like to hurt?" "I do! I do!" "Then hurt me."
