Tabbed by Steve Vetter
 
[Intro]
D  G  x2
 
[Verse 1]
D            G
Early in the mornin'
D             G
Risin' to the street
D                G
Light me up that cigarette and I'll
D                 G
strap shoes on my feet
 
D                G
Got to find the reason
D                   G
Reason things went wrong
D               G
Got to find the reason
       D           G
why my money's all gone
 
D           G
I got a dalmatian
D                G
I can still get high
D              G
I can play the guitar
       D             G
Like a motherfuckin' riot

[Verse 2]
           D               G
Well life is too short, so love the one you got
           D                        G
Cause you might get run over or you might get shot
D                          G
Never start static I just get it off my chest
D                            G
Never had to battle with no bulletproof vest
D                             G
Take a small example,  take a tip from me
D                            G
Take all of your money, give it up to charity
      D                G
Love is what I got, is within my reach
     D                     G
the Sublime style's dealt straight from Long Beach
     D                             G
It come back to you, you're gonna get what you deserve
D                        G
Try'n test that, you're bound to get served
D                         G
Love's what I got, don't start a riot
        D                           G
You'll feel it when the dance gets hot
 
[Chorus]
D       G
Lovin'
          D              G
Is what I got, I said remember that
D       G
Lovin'
          D              G
Is what I got, I said remember that
D       G
Lovin'
          D              G
Is what I got, I said remember that
D       G
Lovin'
          D              G
Is what I got, I said remember that
 
[Verse 3]
D                G
I don't cry when my dog runs away
D                             G
  Don't get angry  'bout the bills I have to pay
D                         G
  Don't get angry when my mom smokes pot
D                           G
  Hits the bottle and goes back to the rock
D                       G
Fuck it, and fight it, it's all the same
   D                             G
Livin' with Louey Dog's the only way to stay sane
D                 G
  Let the lovin', let the lovin'
      D          G
Come back to me

Is what I got, and remember that
D       G

^ just because something is finger picked doesn't mean that's the ONLY way it can ever be played. Plus, some of us suck at picking :P
