A
I don't know what's wrong with me,
E
Nothing I do can make them see
A
That although I'm weirdly self-aware,
E
That I'm the person who really cares
A
But you and me, we talked for hours
E
Walked around and got you flowers
A
Free spirit and an artist too,
E
I've been looking for a girl like you
( A E )
( A E )
A
Not sure if we could call it a date
E
But I love your stories and how we relate
A
Just when I thought it was going swell
E E9/B
Said you're "not looking for romance," but hell
A
If you were you say it would be with me
E
Just not the time for you start anything
A
I guess I'll take the consolation prize
E
But what the fuck was that look in your eyes?
A
I'm a mess
E
I don't know how to impress, anyone
A E
And I don't want us to just be friends
( A E )
F#m
I really believed you were into me,
G#m ( G#m Gm F#m )
I guess I'm a fool, you're so tricky
F#m
I really believed you were into me
G#m ( G#m Gm F#m )
I guess you fooled everyone
A
I'm a mess
E
I don't know how to impress, anyone
A E ( C9 G# )
And I don't want us to just be friends
