Verse
A
Hold my head a little higher
G
Can't you tell I love a liar?
D
I know what I look like to you
A
I would say it's excessive
G
Or maybe damn impressive
D
I'll admit I'm confused
[Pre-Chorus]
A
I've gotta remember
G
That I'm just a toy
D
'Til you got my hopes up
D7
And now I'm annoyed
A
You thought you could charm me
G
And, damn it, you're right
D
So watch me fall for every damn stereotype
[Chorus]
A
You can't help it
F C E
This is just how we were taught to love
Am F
Oh, there's a name for boys like you
C
And yet I feel lucky to hear all your lines
E
I hate that they shake me up every time
[Interlude]
A
(with the swing picking style)
[Verse 2]
A
Hold my hand for just a second
G
See you soon, what do we reckon?
D
Maybe I'm not just a friend
A
But we're so close, I thought we'd kiss
G
Turns out you're just good at this
D
But how 'bout you do it again?
[Pre-Chorus]
A
Oh no, I've gotta remember
G
That I'm just a toy

'Til you got my hopes up
