E D F#m (Riff)
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 D F#m
But each hurt makes my love stronger than before

B
I know flowers grow through rain
A
But how can love grow through pain

E D F#m
Ain't that peculiar
E D F#m
A peculiarity
E D F#m
Ain't that peculiar, baby
E D F#m
Peculiar as can be, oh

E D F#m
You tell me lies that should be obvious to me
But I'm so much in love with you baby 'til I don't want to see
A
But that things you do and say are designed to make me blue
E D F#m
It's a dog gone shame my love for you makes all your lies seem true

B
But if the truth makes love last longer
A
Why do lies make my love stronger

E D F#m
Ain't that peculiar, baby
E D F#m
Peculiar as can be
E D F#m
Ain't that peculiar
E D F#m
A peculiarity, yeah yeah

E D F#m
I cried so much just like a child that's lost his 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 D F#m
But unlike a child, my tears don't help me to get my way

B
I know love can last through years
A
But how can love last through tears

E D F#m
Ain't that peculiar, baby
E D F#m
Peculiar as can be
E D F#m
Ain't that peculiar, honey
E D F#m
Peculiar as can be

E D F#m
Said, "I don't understand it, baby"
It's so strange sometimes
Ain't that peculiar, darlin'
Oh
