[Verse]
Am
Transform into the animal you need to
G          F         E                Am
Fly from a destiny infested with chemicals
Bb         Am             Gm            E
You need a new drug not invented by the CIA
Bb         Am              E                       Am
I wanna be your friend but don’t have the self-control
         Cm         Bm        Bb
We’re in love but I don’t get what you see in me
 
 
[Chorus]
       D#          Bb         F
Lovin' me could be your fatal flaw

[Verse]
Am
Nobody can get a tan in the moonlight
G         F               E                 Am
Come on inside tell me is it just a bit too much?
Bb            Am           Gm          E
He drooled on a pillow and looked like an angel
Bb        Am                 E                    Am
She hit a blunt but it would not chill her out at all
         Cm           Bm        Bb
We’re in love but she don’t get what I see in her
 
 
[Chorus]
       D#          Bb         F
Lovin' me could be your fatal flaw

Really solid. Playing on acoustic I've been leading into the chorus with an F since it changes keys. Helps with the singing.
