Lyrics & Chords

Full Song

Verse 1

Gm

Have you got color in your cheeks?

Gm

Do you ever get that feel that you can’t shift the tide

Bb

That sticks around like something’s in your teeth?

Eb

And some aces up your sleeve

F Gm

I had no idea that you’re in deep

Verse 2

Gm

I dreamt about you nearly every night this week

Gm

How many secrets can you keep?

Bb

‘Cause there’s this tune I found that makes me think of you somehow

Eb

And I play it on repeat

F Gm

Until I fall asleep

Chorus

Gm Eb

Do I wanna know

Bb F

If this feeling flows both ways?

Gm Eb

Sad to see you go

Bb F

Was sort of hoping that you’d stay

Gm Eb

Baby, we both know

Bb F

That the nights were mainly made

Gm Eb BbF

For saying things that you can’t say tomorrow day

Verse 3

Gm

Crawling back to you

Gm

Ever thought of calling when you’ve had a few?

Bb

‘Cause I always do

Eb F Gm

Maybe I’m too busy being yours to fall for somebody new

Chorus

Gm Eb

Do I wanna know

Bb F

If this feeling flows both ways?

Gm Eb

Sad to see you go

Bb F

Was sort of hoping that you’d stay

Gm Eb

Baby, we both know

Bb F

That the nights were mainly made

Gm Eb BbF

For saying things that you can’t say tomorrow day

Bridge

Gm Eb

Too busy being yours to fall

Bb F

Somebody new

Gm Eb

Too busy being yours to fall

Bb F

Somebody new

Gm

Practice tip: With a capo on the 3rd fret, play Em, C, G, D instead of Gm, Bb, Eb, F. This makes all the chords simple open shapes. The Gm-Bb-Eb-F progression is the heart of the song.
