verse 1
G Em
You're stubborn as they come, you'll never settle down
C G
You'll always be the one who doesn't stick around
G Em
You make all the rules, you're set in your ways
C G
You gotta have your freedom, you gotta have your space
G G
Cause one day you'll meet the girl you swore you'd never find
Em
Start feeling things you never felt and spending all your time
C G D
Trying to figure out how she got this hold on you
G
And when you start to fall, you'll hold onto your pride
Em
Start building up your walls and never let her get inside
C G D
You'll push her away 'cause that's all you know how to do
Em D C
And then she'll leave and you won't beg her not to go
G
Ask me how I know
verse 2
G Em
Go on and shake your head and tell me that I'm wrong
C G
Say, "I'm just another fool and this is just another song"
G Em
But I know how you are 'cause I know how I am
C G
And I'd give anything to go back and try again
G G
Cause one day you'll meet the girl you swore you'd never find
Em
Start feeling things you never felt and spending all your time
C G D
Trying to figure out how she got this hold on you
G
And when you start to fall, you'll hold onto your pride
Em
Start building up your walls and never let her get inside
C G D
You'll push her away 'cause that's all you know how to do
Em D C
And then she'll leave and you won't beg her not to go
G
Ask me how I know
