verse 1 
======= 

C                                           F 
  I wanna tell you but I can't spit it out 

C                                             F 
  T-t-t-tripping on my tongue and my mouth is stiff 

G                                F                G 
  Feels like I'm hanging off the edge of a cliff 

         C                                                     F 
  And my eyes can't pick a pocket where they're happy to stick 

C                                                       F 
I'm running from the point but I'm missing a trick with you 

G                            F              G 
  My line is up but girl I'm missing my cue 



    F                                      C         F C 
But can't you give me a fix so I'm craving confidence 

       F                         C         F C 
Well I reek of sweat and teenage innocence 

F                           C           Bb    A7 
   Well I want you so but I know you'll never know 

F                  G                                   C     F  
   Cos I'm too shy   said I'm too shy for the hometown girl 


C  F  C  F  C  F  C  F 


verse 2 
======= 

C                                               F 
  I wanna tell you but I'm sick with the fright 

C                                              F 
  S-s-s-slipping up I'm caught in the light of lust 

G                            F                G 
  I get the feeling that you ain't too fussed 

C                                            F 
  My head feels heavy as the regret sinks in 

C                                              F 
  I shouldn't be afraid to take it on the chin 

      F   G           F                          G 
But I duck I miss the jab but I'm hit with the hook 



    F                                      C         F C 
But can't you give me a fix so I'm craving confidence 

       F                         C         F C 
Well I reek of sweat and teenage innocence 

F                           C           Bb    A7 
   Well I want you so but I know you'll never know 

F                  G                                   C     F  
   Cos I'm too shy   said I'm too shy for the hometown girl
