Kissing this, kissing that

I'm kissing anybody kissing me back
Bm7 A E7/G#
Time likes pulling my teeth

Miracles never cease

Depending on which ones you believe

Dm C Gadd9/B
People are passing out hoping for less
G/B Cadd9
Anyway, how you been
G/B Cadd9
Look at everybody twist in the wind
Dm C Gadd9/B
Time just does what it does
Dm C G/B
I only wish it wouldn't do it to us
