Intro: Em D A D
 
Em D
Have you got colour in your cheeks?
A
Do you ever get that fear that you can't shift
Em
The type that sticks around like something in your teeth?
D
Are there some aces up your sleeve?
A
Have you no idea that you're in deep?
Em
I dreamt about you nearly every night this week
D
How many secrets can you keep?
A Em
'Cause there's this tune I found that makes me think of you somehow and I play it on repeat
D
Until I fall asleep
A
Spilling drinks on my settee
 
Em
(Do I wanna know)
D
If this feeling flows both ways?
A
(Sad to see you go)
 
Was sort of hoping that you'd stay
Em
(Baby we both know)

That the nights were mainly made for saying things that you can't say tomorrow day
 
G
Crawling back to you
 
A D
Ever thought of calling when you've had a few?
B
'Cause I always do
A G A D
Maybe I'm too busy being yours to fall for somebody new
B
Now I've thought it through
 
Crawling back to you
 
Em D
So have you got the guts?
A Em
Been wondering if your heart's still open and if so I wanna know what time it shuts
D
Simmer down and pucker up
A Em D
I'm sorry to interrupt. It's just I'm constantly on the cusp of trying to kiss you
A
I don't know if you feel the same as I do
Em D A
But we could be together if you wanted to
