[Intro]
F G
Before it slips away
C F G

[Chorus 1]
C F G Gadd9 G
Say something loving
C F G Gadd9 G
I just don't remember the thrill of affection
C F G Gadd9 G
I just don't remember, say something loving
C F G G6
I need a reminder the feeling's escaped me
C F

[Verse 1]
G F
I went looking for it, could have been anyone's kiss
G F
Throwing my arms at no-one, when I gave up I found love
G F
The thought flows through my mind, and it's growing all the time
G F
I do myself a disservice, to feel this weak, to be this nervous

[Chorus 2]
G Gadd9 G
You say something loving
C F G Gadd9 G
It's so overwhelming, the thrill of affection
C F G Gadd9 G
Feels so unfamiliar, you say something loving
C F G Gadd9 G
Without hesitation it hits me, hits me
C F G
It feels so unfamiliar

F
Before it slips away

[Verse 2]
G F
Your touch stays on my skin, I feel it start sinking in
G F
Here come my insecurities, I almost expect you to leave
G F
Were you really looking for me, try your best to reassure me
G F
I wasn't patient to meet you, am I too needy, am I too eager

G F
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know what this is but it doesn't feel wrong
G F
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know what this is but it doesn't feel wrong

[Bridge]
F G/B
Did you hear me say it, say it
G Fmaj7
Did you hear me say

[Chorus 3]
G Gadd9 G
I say something loving
C F G Gadd9 G
I can't hold it inside, the thrill of affection
C F G Gadd9 G
Is only getting stronger, I say something loving
C F G Gadd9 G
All my hesitations are fading, fading
C F G
I feel it taking over

[Outro]
Am F G Am F G
Before it slips away, don't let it slip away
Am F G Am F
Before it slips away, don't let it slip away
