The Wrong Direction Chords

(ver. 1)
Passenger
Capo - Fifth Fret

Intro - F C G Am

F                                             C
When i was a kid the things i did were hidden under the grid
G                                                 Am
Young and naive, i never believed that love could be so well hid
F                                            C
With regret I'm willing to bet they say 'the older you get
G                                    Am
It gets harder to forgive and harder to forget
F                               C
It gets under your shirt like a dagger at work
G                                    Am
The first cut is the deepest but the rest still flippin' hurt
    F                                   C
You build your heart of plastic, you're cynical and sarcastic
        G
and you end up in the corner on your own

F                                       C
'Cos I'd love to feel love, but i can't stand the rejection
  G                         Am
I hide behind my jokes as a form of protection
  F                              C
I thought i was close, but under further inspection
   G                               Am
It seems I've been running, in the wrong direction, oh no

Filler - F C G Am x2

           F                                             
What's the point in getting your hopes up, when all you're ever getting is 
C
choked up?
            G                                Am
When you're coked up, and can't remember the reason why you broke up
       F                                   C
You'll call her in the morning when you're coming down and falling
        G                          
Like an old man on the side of the road
            F            
When you're apart, you don't wanna mingle
            C                            
When you're together you wanna be single
         G                                     Am
Ever the chase to taste the kiss of bliss that made your heart tingle
         F
How much greener the grass is
              C
Through those rose tinted glasses
        G
And the butterflies that flutter by and leave us on our arses

F                                       C
'Cos I want to feel love, but i can't stand the rejection
  G                         Am
I hide behind my jokes as a form of protection
  F                              C
I thought i was close, but under further inspection
   G                               Am
It seems I've been running, in the wrong direction
        F                         C
There's fish in the sea for me to make a selection
    G                            Am
I'd jump in, if it wasn't for my ear infection
F                            C
All I really want is just to make a connection
       G                              Am
But it seems I've been running in the wrong direction, oh no

Filler - F C G Am x2

        F          C
What is love? Baby don't hurt me
      Am
Don't hurt me
   G
No more
        F          C
What is love? Baby don't hurt me
      Am
Don't hurt me

No more
        F          C
What is love? Baby don't hurt me

Don't hurt me
   G
No more
