[Verse 1]
Fmaj7
I could go and read your mind
Am7
Think about your dumb face all the time
G
Living in your glass house, I'm outside
Fmaj7
Mm, looking into big blue eyes
Am7
Did it just to hurt me, make me cry
G
Smiling through it all, yeah, that's my life
[Pre-Chorus]
Fmaj7
You're an idiot
Now I’m sure
Am7
Now I’m positive
G
I should go and warn her
[Chorus]
Fmaj7
Ooh
Am7
Bet you’re thinking she’s so cool
G Fmaj7
Kicking back on your couch, making eyes from across the room
Am7
Wait, I think I’ve been there too
G
Ooh
[Verse 2]
Fmaj7
What’d she do to get you off?
Am7
Taking down her hair like “Oh my god”
G
Taking off your shirt, I did that once or twice
Fmaj7
Uh, No, I know, and I’ll f**k off
Am7
But I think I like her, she’s so fun!
G
Wait, I think I hate her, I’m not that evolved
Fmaj7
I’m sorry she’s missing it
Sad, sad boy
Am7
Not my business
G
But I had to warn ya
[Chorus]
Fmaj7
Ooh
Am7
Bet you’re thinking she’s so cool
G Fmaj7
Kicking back on your couch, making eyes from across the room
Am7 G
Wait, I think I’ve been there too
Fmaj7
Ooh
Am7
You’ve got me thinking she’s so cool
G Fmaj7
But I know what I know and you’re just another dude
Am7 G
Ooh, ooh that’s so true
[Bridge]
Fmaj7
Made it out alive, but I think I lost it
Am7
Said that I was fine, said it from the coffin
C
Remember how I died when you started walking
G
That’s my life, that’s my life
Fmaj7
I’ll put up a fight, taking out my earrings
Am7
Don’t you know the vibe? Don’t you know the feeling?
C
You should spend the night, catch me on your ceiling
G
That’s your prize, that’s your prize, well
[Chorus]
Fmaj7
Mmm
Am7
You’ve got me thinking she’s so cool
G Fmaj7
Kicking back on your couch, making eyes from across the room
Am7 G
Wait, I think I’ve been there too
Fmaj7
Ooh, Oh, Ooh
Am7
You’ve got me thinking she’s so cool
G Fmaj7
But I know what I know and you’re just another dude
Am7 G
Ooh, that’s so true
Ooh, oh
