Intro 1

Verse 1
E 
Honey, you do me wrong
but still I'm crazy about you
Stay away too long and
I can't do without you
A 
Every chance you get you seem
to hurt me more and more
E 
But each hurt makes my love
stronger than before

Pre-chorus 1

I know flowers go through rain

But how can love go through pain?

Chorus 1

Ain't that peculiar?

A peculiar-arity

Ain't that peculiar, baby?

Peculiar as can be

Verse 2
E 
Oh, you tell me lies
that should be obvious to me
But I'm so much in love with you,
baby, 'till I don't want to see
A 
That things you do and say
are designed to make me blue
E 
It's a doggone shame my love for you
makes all your lies seem true

Pre-chorus 2

But if the truth makes love last longer

Why do lies make my love stronger?

(stronger, stronger, stronger)

Chorus 2

Ain't that peculiar?

Peculiar as can be

Ain't that peculiar?

Bridge 1
A peculiar-arity, hey, hey
E 
E 
Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah, hey, hey (hey, hey)
B 
A 
Ah-ah- ah, ah-ah-ah, hey, hey (hey, hey)
E 
Ah-ah- ah, ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah

Verse 3
E 
I cried so much
just like a child that's lost its toy
Maybe, baby, you think
these tears I cry are tears of joy
A 
A child can cry so much
until you do everything they say
E 
But unlike a child my tears don't help me
to get my way

Pre-chorus 3

I know love can last through years

But how can love last through tears?

(tears, tears, tears)

Chorus 3
E 
Now ain't that peculiar baby?
A peculiar-arity
Ain't that peculiar, honey?
Peculiar as can be
Said I don't understand it baby
It's so strange sometimes
Ain't it peculiar, darling
Oh, baby
[Repeat and fade]
