G         G/F#             Em       Am                   Am7                D  D-h
Lives are like retractable pencils, if you push them too hard they're gonna break.
G              G/F#        Em    Am              Am7                       D  D-h       
And people are like paper dolls, paper dolls and people, they're a similar shape.
G           G/F#           Em    Am          Am7                      D   D-h   
And love is like a roll of tape, it's real good for making two things one
G                  G/F#    Em    Am                    Am7                 D  D-h
But just like that roll of tape, love sometimes breaks off before you were done.
G                G/F#               Em              Em7
Another way that love is similar to love, that I've noticed
Am                 Am7             D D-h
Is, sometimes it's hard to see the end.
    G                                G/F#

    Em                                Em7
You search 'round the roll with your fingernai-ai-al         
                you search with your fingernai-ai-al
Am        Am7       D                  (hold)
Again and again and again and again...           Wo-wu-wo-  
Again and again and again and again... and agai-hain
