Verse 1: Bbmaj7 Ebmaj7 Ebmaj7 Fmaj7
Girl I'm in love with you / 
This ain't the honeymoon
Past the infatuation phase. /
Right in the thick of love
At times we get sick of love /
It seems like we argue every day.

I know I misbehave and you made your mistakes and 
We both still got room left to grow.  
And though love sometimes hurt, I still put you first
and we'll make this thing work but I think we should take it slow.
 
 [Chorus]
We're Just Ordinary People / We don't know which way 2 go
Cause we're Ordinary People /maybe we should take it slow.
 Take it slow-oh oh-oh-oh /This time we'll take it slow
Take it slow-oh oh-oh-oh /This time we'll take it slow

[Verse 2]
This ain't a movie naw / 
No fairy tale conclusion ya'll
It gets more confusing every day. / 
Sometimes it's heaven sent then we, 
head back to hell again 

We kiss, then we make up all the way.
I hang up, you call We rise and we fall 
And we feel like just like walking away.
As our love advances We take second chances
Though it's not a fantasy I still want you to stay...

[Chorus]
 
[Bridge]     Bbm                       Db/Eb
Maybe we'll live and learn, maybe we'll crash and burn
Fmaj7
Maybe you'll stay, maybe you'll leave, maybe you'll return
Bbm                 Db/Eb
Maybe another fight, maybe we won't survive
Fmaj7
Maybe we'll grow, we never know, baby you and I
