[Verse]
                       G#m  B*  D#*       B  
You always had me in the palm of your hand
D#mI don't know if I'll ever sC#mee you again
  G#m  B* D#*     B   D#m   G#m  C#m  
Why,        why, why
                      G#m  B*   D#*     B  
I thought I had you in the palm of my hand
D#mI thought about it and now C#mI understand
  G#m  B* D#*     B   D#m  C#m  
Why,        why, why
[Chorus]
                     G#m  B* D#* B  
You were always looking at me sideways
Tripping on me aF#ll day, puC#mzzling you
                     G#m  B* D#* B  
You were always looking at me sideways
Tripping on me aD#mll day, C#mpuzzling you

[Verse]
                             G#m  B*  D#* B  
I'm not the kind of girl that likes to hold hands
D#mI tend to run from it G#mas fC#mast as I can

Why,        why, why
                              G#m  B* D#*    B  
I couldn't sleep the first night I let you in
D#mI said I didn't wanna C#msee you again
      G#m  B* D#*     B     D#m  C#m  
I lied,              lied, lied
[Chorus]
                     G#m  B* D#* B  
You were always looking at me sideways
Tripping on me aF#ll day, puC#mzzling you
