Intro: Em  
EmWhy are guys so blind and Amwhy are they oblivious
EmThey could be so rude and Amit could be ridiculous
FYou try to do one thing and they laugh and make fun of you
DYou try to be yourself and they hate all the things you... do
EmThey don't know the truth, they Amtwist up all the facts
EmStart another rumor, Ameveryone reacts
FThey don't know the other side, they just assume
DAnd everything is fine til you walk in the room.
EmOne, two, three and four
CI can't take this anymore
GFive, six, seven, eight
DI just need a sweet escape
DI just need a sweet escape
EmShake it off yeah its just whatever
CThey say these lies just to get together
GThey will tell you that it's now or Dnever
Oh, oh, oh, oh
EmShake it off yeah its just whatever
CThey say these lies just to get together
GThey will tell you that it's now or Dnever
So shake it off, it's just Emwhatever
EmI look them in the eyes, Ambut I can't see any trust 
EmI try to talk to them, Ambut they don't take me serious
FI just want a guy who says what he means
DBut maybe that happens only in dreams
EmOutta control and Amthey are so curious 
EmMessing with my mind Amtil I am delirious
FWhen they're with their friends they are jerks
DThey try to impress both, but it never works
EmOne, two, three and four

Em Am

I look them in the eyes, but I can't see any trust

Em Am

I try to talk to them, but they don't take me serious

I just want a guy who says what he means

But maybe that happens only in dreams

Em Am

Outta control and they are so curious

Em Am

Messing with my mind til I am delirious

When they're with their friends they are jerks

They try to impress both, but it never works
