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