Verse 1

C                                           F
  I wanna tell you but I can't spit it out

C                                             F
  T-t-t-tripping on my tongue and my mouth is stiff

G                                F                G
  Feels like I'm hanging off the edge of a cliff

         C                                                     F
  And my eyes can't pick a pocket where they're happy to stick

C                                                       F
I'm running from the point but I'm missing a trick with you

G                            F              G
  My line is up but girl I'm missing my cue

But can't you give me a fix so I'm craving confidence

       F                         C         F C
Well I reek of sweat and teenage innocence

F                           C           Bb    A7
   Well I want you so but I know you'll never know

F                  G                                   C     F
   Cos I'm too shy   said I'm too shy for the hometown girl

Verse 2
=======

C                                               F
  I wanna tell you but I'm sick with the fright

C                                              F
  S-s-s-slipping up I'm caught in the light of lust

G                            F                G
  I get the feeling that you ain't too fussed

C                                            F
  My head feels heavy as the regret sinks in

C                                              F
  I shouldn't be afraid to take it on the chin

      F   G           F                          G
But I duck I miss the jab but I'm hit with the hook
