Verse 2: (Same as the first)

I told my buddies I was settlin? down
No more of this runnin? 
?round
They looked at me like I was a fool
And said, ?Boy, tell us what?s wrong with you.?

Chorus:

Bridge:
  B7                     E
I toss and turn 
?til the mornin? light
B7                         E
Holdin? my pillow, hangin? on for life
B7                  E     A A7
There ain't nothin? I can do
               E                                A A7 E
They said, ?It sounds like love?s got a hold on you

No doubt love?s got a hold on you.?
