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