[Verse]
D#m
We're sippin’ cocktails,
Lookin’ down upon the riot,
G#m
You whisper "baby, love the,
Way you look tonight,
B G#m

I wanna save you, save you,
C#

From the world outside."

D#m

I know it seems you're,
All I wanted and much more,
G#m

But then to tell the truth,
I've been through this before.
B G#m
()

They say "I'll save you, save you",
C#

But they never do.
But they never do.

[Pre-Chorus]
d#m
I think you know,
I want to believe you,
B
But in my heart,
I know that I'll leave you,
C#
It's just so sad how,
Instincts decieve you,
G#m

Or does it please you?

B
Everything you say,
G#m
Makes me wanna stay,
D#m
But everything you've done,
C#
Makes me wanna run, run, run.

[Chorus]
D#m

I'll make the decision that,
I can't be with you,
B
Walkin out the door,
But I already miss you.
C#
Thinkin' about how,
I used to kiss you.
G#m
I'm gettin' butterflies,
C#

I'm gettin' butterflies!

D#m

I'll make the decision that,
I'm too good for you,
B

Can't you see you're calling?
It's hard to ignore you.
C#
Try to be strong,
But babe, I adore you!
G#m
I'm gettin' butterflies,
C#
I'm gettin' butterflies!

[Verse]
D#m

We're back in high school,
In the yard we used to fight,
G#m
But you would sneak in,
Through my window every night.
B

I wanna take you, take you,
C#

To the world outside.

D#m
Well, I assumed it's,
What I wanted at the time,
(Oh, at the time),
G#m B

But your eyes were like,
A constant warning sign,(A warning sign),
B

I wanna take you, take you,
C#

And I didn't mind.

[Pre-Chorus]
D#m
And even though,
I didn't believe you, (no),
B

You had a smile,
So easy to see through,
G#m
I know that there's a part of me,
That always needs you.
C#
Try to reach you, (what)?
Try to please you.

B

Everything you say,
G#m

Makes me wanna stay,
D#m
But everything you've done,
C#
Makes me wanna run, run, run.

[Chorus]
D#m

I'll make the decision that,
I can't be with you,
B
Walkin out the door,
But I already miss you.
C#

Thinkin' about how,
I used to kiss you.
G#m

I'm gettin' butterflies,
C#
I'm gettin' butterflies!

D#m
I'll make the decision that,
I'm too good for you,
B

Can't you see you're calling?
It's hard to ignore you.
C#

Try to be strong,
But babe, I adore you!
G#m

I'm gettin' butterflies,
C#
I'm gettin' butterflies!
[Bridge]
B
I know, I know, I know,
We aren't good together.
G#m
I can't let go, I'm sure,
C#
That we should be forever.

[Pre-Chorus]
D#m
I look around,
There's no one above you,
B
I think you know that,
I'll always love you.

G#m

And baby I'm bad too,
It's not just you,
C#
But I can't wait,
Forever to trust you.


B
Everything you say,
G#m

Makes me wanna stay,
D#m
But everything you've done,
C#

Makes me wanna run, run, run.

[Chorus]
D#m

I'll make the decision that,
I can't be with you,
B

Walkin out the door,
But I already miss you.
C#
Thinkin' about how,
I used to kiss you.
G#m

I'm gettin' butterflies,
C#
I'm gettin' butterflies!

D#m
I'll make the decision that,
I'm too good for you,
B

Can't you see you're calling?
It's hard to ignore you.
C#
Try to be strong,
But babe, I adore you!
G#m

I'm gettin' butterflies,
C#
I'm gettin' butterflies!
