[Intro]
C   Em   E6   C
[Verse 1]
  CYou have a way of Emgetting in my head 
  E6And I don't wanna come on too Cstrong
But there's Csomething in the way you talk 
  EmIn the way you smile 
  E6That's been haunting me since I've been Cgone 
[Verse 2]
  CAnd the timing, ohhh, Emcouldn't be more wrong 
And I've E6tried to ignore it 
Tried to push it away with a Csong 
[Chorus]
So I'll E6hide behind lyrics 
And short conversation 
I'm scared to admit that I've got a fixation on Cyou 
I don't E6know how to read you 
Do you feel the same? 
'Cause I feel kind of crazy for feeling this way 
Oh it's Ctrue 
But E6I'm no good 
And I don't want to poison Cyou 
[Solo]

[Intro]

C Em E6 C

[Verse 1]

C Em

You have a way of getting in my head

E6 C

And I don't wanna come on too strong

But there's something in the way you talk

In the way you smile

E6 C

That's been haunting me since I've been gone

[Verse 2]

C Em

And the timing, ohhh, couldn't be more wrong

And I've tried to ignore it

Tried to push it away with a song

[Chorus]

So I'll hide behind lyrics

And short conversation

I'm scared to admit that I've got a fixation on you

I don't know how to read you

Do you feel the same?

'Cause I feel kind of crazy for feeling this way

Oh it's true

But I'm no good

And I don't want to poison you
