Capo on 3th fret
[Intro]
G
[Verse 1: Kehlani]
G                              Em
All the back and forth getting complicated
D                        D            G  Em
Running me around got me frustrated, no
                         D
That's why I been laying low
       G                   Em
If you wanna make it work, baby, gotta say it
D
Need a little more than participation
G  Em                   D
Or, I could go be on my own
[Pre-Chorus: Hayley Kiyoko]
            C               G
Sure I would kiss you, I'll lay with you
       Em                 D
You're broke, no, I can't fix you
  C                  G
I won't, no, I won't diss you
    Em                  D
But babe, yeah, I might miss you
          C               G
If you're cold and needed shelter
    Em                D
I'd hold you, but not sweat ya
    C              G
And know we're not together
    Em             D
But babe, I won't forget ya
[Chorus: Kehlani & Hayley Kiyoko]
       C                  G
What I need, what I need, what I need
                 Em       D
Is for you to be sure, no no no
              C             G
For you to be sure, no no no
              Em           D
For you to be sure, no no no
       C                  G
What I need, what I need, what I need
                     Em           D
Is to tell me that it's yours, no no no
                C             G
And who you do it for, no no no
                  Em            D
Need you to be sure, no no no, no no
C G Em D

[Verse 2: Hayley Kiyoko]
G                           Em
When we're all alone, girl, you wanna own it
D                             D                 G Em
When we're with your fam, you don't wanna show it
                              D
Oh, you try to keep us on the low
G                             Em
I only want a girl who ain't afraid to love me
D                             D          G Em
Not a metaphor of what we really could be
                         D
Oh, I ain't putting on a show
[Pre-Chorus: Hayley Kiyoko]
            C               G
Sure I would kiss you, I'll lay with you

You're broke, no, I can't fix you
  C                  G
I won't, no, I won't diss you
    Em                  D
But babe, yeah, I might miss you
          C               G
If you're cold and needed shelter
    Em                D
I'd hold you, but not sweat ya
    C              G
And know we're not together

[Bridge: Kehlani & Hayley Kiyoko]
G
We could be bigger and brighter than space
Am
Ain't no running away
Em
No, real loving is sure
G
The way that I love, there's no taking my place
Am
Staring you right in your face
Em
No, don't look away no more
[Pre-Chorus: Hayley Kiyoko]
            C               G
