(Album: Mind Body & Soul, 2004)
Chords:
Verse 1
[Am]Don't go sending me those three dozen [Em]roses
[Am]Don't you know that just one rose will [Em]do
[Am]Don't go trying to put diamonds on my [Em]fingers
[B7]Don't you know that I'm making money too
Verse 2
[Am]Don't go throwing those stones outside my [Em]window
[Am]You don't gotta be calling three times a [Em]day
'Cause [Am]if you do then when we get [Em]together
I'll be [B7]biting my lip 'cause there's nothing else left to say
Pre-Chorus
[Am]Haven't you heard absence makes the heart grow [Em]fonder
[Am]Haven't you heard nothing good comes [Em]overnight
I'm [Am]telling you straight baby, just in case you [Em]wonder
It's [B7]turning me off, crowding me out, it's not right
Chorus
Less is [Am]more
Back it up, slow it down, let it [Em]breathe
'Cause too much of a good thing can [Am]be bad
See [Em]we don't wanna go out like that
Less is [Am]more
Pull it back, hold it down, chill it [Em]out
If you want me to still be [B7]around, remember
Verse 3
[Am]If you wanna be showing your [Em]affection
[Am]Don't you know a simple kiss will [Em]do
[Am]So many beautiful ways for love's [Em]expression
But I'm [B7]sorry to say your way ain't getting through
Pre-Chorus
[Am]Haven't you heard a little space makes the heart grow [Em]fonder
[Am]Haven't you heard nothing good comes [Em]overnight
I'm [Am]telling you straight baby, just in case you [Em]wonder
It's [B7]turning me off, crowding me out, it's not right
Chorus
Less is [Am]more
Back it up, slow it down, let it [Em]breathe
'Cause too much of a good thing can [Am]be bad
See [Em]we don't wanna go out like that
Less is [Am]more
Pull it back, hold it down, chill it [Em]out
If you want me to still be [B7]around, remember
Bridge
[Am]It would be something if I had a chance to be [Em]missing you
[Am]Too much for taking, it's driving me crazy, that's [Em]all you do
It [Am]needs rearranging, it's so suffocating that [Em]I can't move
You gotta take [B7]two steps back, believe what they say; it's true
Chorus
Less is [Am]more
Back it up, slow it down, let it [Em]breathe
'Cause too much of a good thing can [Am]be bad
Be so [Em]bad
Less is [Am]more
Pull it back, hold it down, chill it [Em]out
If you want me to still be [B7]around, remember[Am]
Outro
Gimme a chance to miss you[Em]
Boy, I don't mean to diss you, [Am]but
I tell you I need some space and still you [Em]call me up three times a day
You [Am]know, baby you crowding me out[Em]
Haven't you heard less is [B7]more
Less is [Am]more
Listen to me [Em]boy
Less is [Am]more
[Em](fade out)
