[Verse 1]
Bm D Em G
Don't feel inspired by the faces I see
Bm D Em A
Flawless on socials, but can't possibly be
Bm D Em G
They're like someone imperfect, not even 18 on a screen
Bm D Em A
I move on to someone else
Bm D Em G
Ready for complicated nights with just one
Bm D Em A
I love the thrill, but chasing all of them is done
Bm D Em G
'Cause soon as I act more than a late night, they run
Bm D Em A
Oh, they run, they move on to someone else
[Chorus]
Bm D Em G
I'm not looking for perfect, just for somebody who
Bm D Em A
Holds it down when I'm hurting, lifts me up when I lose
Bm D
There will be days when I can't function
Em G
There will be nights I won't sleep
Bm D Em G
I'm not looking for perfect, just for somebody who takes it slow
(riff)
[Instrumental]
Bm D Em A
Just for somebody who takes it slow
[Verse 2]
Bm D Em G
Don't need a subtle taste of what's left unseen
Bm D Em A
Those odd behaviors, oh, they come off obscene
Bm D Em G
Yeah, I need a life of my own to blow off some steam
Bm D Em A
That doesn't mean that I don't want you (That doesn't mean that I don't want you)
[Chorus]
Bm D Em G
I'm not looking for perfect, just for somebody who
Bm D Em A
Holds it down when I'm hurting, lifts me up when I lose
Bm D
There will be days when I can't function
Em G
There will be nights I won't sleep
Bm D Em G
I'm not looking for perfect, just for somebody who takes it slow
