[Verse 1]
C
I like holding your hand
Em E7 Am
But it hurts oh I can't stand
N.C
To see you
Dm
To feel you
G
My insides are turning blue
C
I like the way that you walk
Em E7 Am
Sometimes I wish you'd never stop
My heart aches
Dm
My bones break
G
With each little move you make
[Pre-Chorus]
F
I can't help
I can't really help it
Dm G
You make me feel like–
[Chorus]
Cmaj7
You're waiting for the next best thing
C
(Something had to change)
C7
A girl you'd give a diamond ring
(It's kinda hard to explain)
F
I'm not mad that you don't adore me
(Wish you told me)
Dm
But when I'm with you I feel lonely
N.C.
Oh
[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
C
I've been staring outside
Em E7 Am
Spare time was thinking I could find
Am
Where leaves blow
Dm
Where the weeks go
G
When the snow comes to dampen your fall
Cmaj7
Far from the life that we knew
Em E7 Am
Months hurtle by and I barely see you
Am
So I've been down
Dm
Dumb as it sounds
G
When you're with me you're somebody else
[Pre-Chorus]
F
I can't help
I can't really help it
Dm G
You make me feel like–
[Chorus]

A girl you'd give a diamond ring
C
(It's kinda hard to explain)
F
I'm not mad that you don't adore me
(Wish you told me)
Dm
But when I'm with you I feel lonely
G Cmaj7
Oh you're waiting for the next best thing
(You're saying hi to your friends)
C7
The table won't know what to bring
(Not nice to see you again)
F
Your intentions are so damn hazy
(Though it pains me)
Dm G
I wish you'd let your guard get lazy
N.C.
Oh
[Outro]
