( same chords )
you simplified me down to slogans on the wall
i took offense , but you were right about them all
my friends are telling me i shouldn’t waste my time
but i can’t concentrate until i make you mine
i’m drawing cards and making wishes down by the well
who would’ve known i’d lose myself in that old hotel

i want you
or no one
no one else for me
you , or no one
’cause no one else is strong enough , strong enough
to slow me down in time to set me free

( chorus again – same chords )
i want you
or no one else
no one else is fine
oh , you , or no one
no one is the only one
to fill me up until i make you mine

Gm | Cm | Gm | Cm | Gm
