Intro

||: G#m11 | G#m11 | F#/G# | F#/G# :||

Verse 1

| G#m11 | G#m11 | F#/G# | F#/G# |
You must understand, though the touch of your hand makes my pulse react.
| G#m11 | G#m11 | F#/G# |
That it’s only the thrill of boy meeting girl, opposites attract.
| E F# | F# (F#sus4) | E F# | F# (F#sus4) |
It’s physical. Only logical.
| E | F# |
You must try to ignore that it means more than that. Oh-oh-oh.

Chorus 1

| (B) G#m/A# F#/G# (F#) | E F# |
What’s love got to do, got to do with it?

What’s love, but a second-hand emotion?
| (B) G#m/A# F#/G# (F#) | E F# |
What’s love got to do, got to do with it?
| (B) G#m/A# F# | E F# |
Who needs a heart when a heart can be broken?

Verse 2

| G#m11 | G#m11 | F#/G# | F#/G# |
It may seem to you that I’m acting confused when you’re close to me.
| G#m11 | G#m11 | F#/G# |
If I tend to look dazed, I read it some place, I got cause to be.
| E F# | F# (F#sus4) | E F# | F# (F#sus4) |
There’s a name for it. There’s a phrase that fits.
| E | F# |
But whatever the reason, you do it for me. Oh-oh-oh.

Chorus 2
