[Intro] - Dmaj7 G
[Verse]
Dmaj7
Well I see you standing there and your eyes are unaware
G
That I've been staring at them all night, wishing the brain behind them cared
Em
About the way you make me feel or how your smile makes me nervous
A
Or how the fact that you exist makes me feel like I have a purpose.
Dmaj7
I'm sick of lying in your bed while we're both laying down.
G
You say you want me for a friend. I hope you know I hate that sound.
Em
But I will bite my tongue because I hate when you're pissed off.
A
But you should know I need your touch like falling rain on thirsty crops.
[Chorus]
G A D A G
But damn you stupid girl. Why won't you drop your guard?
A D A G
The space between our lips is bound to break my ever aching heart.
A D A G
And I am sure that you will never find a man that is ever gonna love you more.
A
So why won't you love me?
[Short Bridge Thing] - Dmaj7 G
Dmaj7
Well I hate your cigarettes and the men that you go see
G
Because one is killing you, while the other's killing me.
Em
But I know that you'll stay stubborn because you know I'll stay alone.
A
'Cause we both know, inside your grasp, is the only place I feel at home.
Dmaj7
Now I sit with my guitar. Write you one more stupid song.
G
I hate the way you make me feel like I'm doing something wrong.
Em
But you'll just have to deal with all the things that I have mentioned
A
And I hope this song is golden like the point of my intentions
[Chorus]
G A D A G
But damn you stupid girl. Why won't you drop your guard?
A D A G
The space between our lips is bound to break my ever aching heart.
A D A G
And I am sure that you will never find a man that is ever gonna love you more.
A
So why won't you love me?
[Short Bridge Thing] - Dmaj7 G
[Verse]
Dmaj7
Now the deed is done and there is nothing left to say.
G
Prayed to the God you don't believe in, that you'll love me some day.
Em
So when the years go by and you forget how much I care;
A
Put in this song and sing along so your heart will be aware.
[Outro]
G A D A G
It's like giving up on everything that you believe
A D A G
To put your trust in a girl that stole your heart right off your sleeve.
A D A G
And I'm so sure that you will never find a man that is ever gonna love you more.
A (Strum once) Dmaj7 (Strum once)
But you just won't love me.
