C B7
Putting my defenses up
Em G
'Cause I don't wanna fall in love
C (stop)
If I ever did that
B7 (Em)
I think I'd have a heart attack
C G D
Never put my love out on the linE
Em C
Never said yes to the right guy
G D
Never had trouble getting what I want
Em C
But when it comes to you, I'm never good enough
G D
When I don't care
Em C
I can play 'em like a Ken doll
G D
Won't wash my hair
Em C
Then make 'em bounce like a basketball
G D
But you make me wanna act like a girl
Em C
Paint my nails and wear high heels
G
Yes you make me so nervous
D B7
That I just can't hold your hand
(Pre Chorus)
Em C G D
You make me glo-o-o-o-o-ow, but I cover up
Em C G D
Won't let it sho-o-o-o-o-ow, so I'm
C B7
Putting my defenses up
Em G
'Cause I don't wanna fall in love
C B7 (stop)
If I ever did that
Em C G
I think I'D have A heart atta--ack
D Em C G
I think I'D have A heart atta-ack
D
I think I'd have a heart attack
C G D
Never break a sweat for the other guys
Em C
When you come around, I get paralyzed
G D
And every time I try to be myself
Em C
It comes out wrong like a cry for help
G D
It's just not fair
Em C
Pain's more trouble than it all is worth
G D
I gasp for air
Em C
It feels so good, but you know it hurts
G D
But you make me wanna act like a girl
Em C
Paint my nails and wear perfume
G
For you, make me so nervous
C B7
That I just can't hold your hand
(Pre-Chorus)
(Chorus)
Em C
The feelings got lost in my lungs
G
They're burning, I'd rather be numb
D Em
Yeah, there's no one else to blame
C
So scared I'll take off and run
G
I'm flying too close to the sun
D B7
And I'm busting into flames
(Pre-Chorus)
(Chorus)
