AmIt's quite alright to Fhate me now
CWhen we both know that Gdeep down
The feeling still Amdeep down is Fgood
CI’d love to hold youGr hand againAm  
AmI wanna feel the warmFth between my fingers
CFrom the first sign Gof spring to the scorchiAmng heat of summer
AmAutumn through the wiFnter, ignore it all, sleeping underneath the covers
CI wanna wake up everGy morning with yaAm  
AmI wanna make love untFil the afternoon
CI miss you more than Gjust this picture hiddeAmn in my memory, tattooed
AmEvery time I think of Fsomething real I always start with you
CSo nice to see you wGith a girlfriendAm  
AmI love it when you’re Fhappy, I remember when
CYou told me 'bout yoGur business, how you thoAmught you’d have to give in
AmBut you didn’t, now iFt’s bigger just like fuckin’ magic
CI miss you smiling aGt me from across the rooAmm
AmI miss being a part oFf something cool
CWith somebody like yGou, I don’t wanna be a sAmtranger
AmReally, what will thaFt do? Hey

I couldn’t see Fwhat’s right in front of me, the forrest for the trees
CI probably haven’t been Gas onto it as I coulda
Shoulda, woulda, hidiAmng from my Fproblems with my hood up
Just know it waCsn’t you, I was runGning from my past
AmMy reflection in thFe mirror had me sucking on a flask
CHad that liquor, but it switched up when we went in for that scan
GHeld your hand as the doctor said, Am“We got a little man”
That was gFrowing in your stomach, silhouettes upon the screen
CI want you to know I loved him, but it wasn’t meant to be
Heavenly GFather keep an eye oAmut Ffor my son
CAnd my Gpops, to my mamacitAma, know that you’re the one
AmUnderstand I'mFa be a better lover and a friend
CEven if Git doesn’t last I’Amll still love you to the end
[Pre-chorus]
You ain't a Ckid no moreG  
GWe'll never be those Amkids againF  
[Chorus]
CI thought that I was dGreaming when you said you Amlove meF  
CThe start of nothing
I had no chance to pGrepare
I couldn't see you AmcomingF  
The start of Cnothing new
I could Ghate you now
AmIt's quite alright to Fhate me now
CWhen we both know that Gdeep down
The feeling still Amdeep down is goodF  C  
[Pre-chorus]
I could Ghate you now
AmIt's quite alright to Fhate me now
CWhen we both know that Gdeep down
The feeling still Amdeep down is goodF  C
