Intro
F#m D A E x2
[Verse 1]
F#m D A E
Enthusiastic beyond belief
F#m D A E
In a busy room you're all I see
F#m D A E
I fear this admiration will be the end of me
F#m D A E
blurring the lines between what I want and what I need
[Chorus 1]
F#m D A E
Calm down, calm down
F#m D A E
Don't let her see how fast your heart is beating
F#m D A E
Calm down, calm down
F#m D A E
Control your breathing
[Verse 2]
F#m D A E
And if you don't want me, well that's just tough luck
F#m D A E
I think about you but I know I'm not good enough
F#m D A E
Have I built you up too much? Now I can't say
F#m D A E
What's on my mind in case I go and scare you away
[Chorus 1]
F#m D A E
Calm down, calm down
F#m D A E
Don't let her see how fast your heart is beating
F#m D A E
Calm down, calm down
F#m D A E F#m
Control your breathing
[Verse 3]
D A E F#m
All the people you meet
D A E F#m
will have thoughts optimistic and sweet
D A E F#m
And how can I compete
D A E F#m D
with the world at your feet
[Chorus 2]
A E F#m D
Would it be cruel, be cruel, be cruel
A E F#m D
to let my eyes return to you?
A E F#m D
Would it be cruel, be cruel, be cruel,
A E F#m
to give my thoughts, my thought to you?
[Verse 4]
D A E F#m
Feelings for friends turn to hate
D A E F#m
when I see what they are willing to throw away
D A E F#m D A E F#m D
And now I envy a fool who only negates anything with a deeper meaning he tries to say
[Chorus 2]
A E F#m D
Would it be cruel, be cruel, be cruel
A E F#m D
to let my eyes return to you?
A E F#m D
Would it be cruel, be cruel, be cruel,
A E F#m
to give my thoughts, my thought to you?
[Bridge]
D A E F#m
I wouldn't want to hurt you by letting you hurt me
D A E F#m
you don't deserve to feel guilty
D A E F#m
I'm an overly sensitive impatient little freak
D A E F#m D
you'd do better to turn your back on me
A E F#m D
Why do I think these stupid thoughts?
A E F#m D
I want to fight my own advice
A E F#m D
For I will only feel remorse
A
I just want you in my life
