[Verse]
Cm7                            Eb             Gm7
I was cool in them streets and streets y'all
Fm7                            Bb Cm7
Yeah I was cooling them clubs
Cm7                Fm7                    Eb     Dm7
Real talk I wasn't thinking nothing 'bout love
Cm7           F7    Gm7 Fm7                           Gm7
I didn't want nobody    tryin' to partake in my stuff
Cm                                F7   Cm7          Ebmaj7
I thought an occasional one-night stand    would be enough
Ebmaj7 Bb6        Eb6
Oh but one day I, I met this girl and she ruined my philosophy
Eb6
It caught me by surprise
Fm7                      Cm7           Gm7   Fm7 Gm7
And now my heart skips a beat when she comes a   round
Eb6
I never thought that I'd be ready to settle down
Eb6                            Fm7   Gm7
See I was about to find myself alone,
Ab6           Eb     Dm7    Cm7
But I found myself a love

[Chorus]
Cm7               Gm7       Gm7    Fm7
It's gonna take a minute to evolve
Fm7                        Bb              Cm7
But I'd rather have a love than nothing at all
Cm7                        Eb
I'm ready for a love of my own yeah
Cm7
Can't stay in this place forever
Cm                 Gm7 Fm7
Even though I want to, I just see us together
Gm7 Eb6
I'd rather have a love, than live a life alone
Dm7
Yeah Yeah Yeah

[Verse]
Cm7                     Eb          Gm7
See, I was raised by a good one
Gm7   Bb                      F7          Gm7
Momma told me what a real man should be
Cm7               Fm7                     Eb  Dm7
She said son pick one, and treat her like me
Cm7                   Gm7         Fm7                        Bb7
But I took all of her wisdom, and used it for selfish gains
Bb7   Cm7                                    Ebmaj7
And I know if she saw this pimpin', she's be ashamed
Eb        Ab
But now I found her

[Verse]

My heart skips a beat when she comes a  round
Eb6                                         F     Eb
I never thought that I'd be ready to settle down
Ab                  Eb     Fm7 Gm7
I was about to find myself alone,
Ab6                  Eb6    Dm7 Cm7
But I found myself a love

[Chorus]

Eb
On the one hand I could chose to be the guy
Eb                         Gm7
that only chases frivolous pleasure
Cm7
But on the other hand, need to build a dream with
Gm7           Fm7
true love and affection
Fm7                 Gm7         Cm7
I know it's going to be quite a challenge
Fm7                Eb
I know it's gonna take some time
Fm7
But I'm here and I'm ready to change
Fm7   Gm7    Ab6                 Cm7
Cause I know I've found myself a love

[Chorus]
Cm7                         Gm7
It's gonna take a minute to evolve
Fm7                   Gm7  Cm7
But I'd rather have a love than nothing at all
Cm7                        Eb
