Verse 1
C#m C#m 
 
Sometimes you worry 'bout the things
Amaj7 Amaj7 
 
he can      provide for ya
G#m7 G#m7 
 
Whenever you    around I seen it
C#m C#m 
 
come  alive for ya
I finally recognize the feelings
Amaj7 Amaj7 
 
that's   inside for ya
G#m7 G#m7 
 
Although I know   your man and trust me
C#m C#m 
 
he    would die for ya
These quiet thoughts of you been going
Amaj7 Amaj7 
 
on       for years now
G#m7 G#m7 
 
C#m C#m 
 
I saw you in     the party soft lips
soft spoken
I came and talked to you but homie
Amaj7 Amaj7 
 
interfered now
G#m7 G#m7 
 
He introduced  you as his girl
C#m C#m 
 
and   I was heartbroken
Some people talk about
Amaj7 Amaj7 
 
that love at first    sight shit
G#m7 G#m7 
 
To keep it real   I don't know whether
C#m C#m 
 
I     believe it's true
Amaj7 Amaj7 
 
But if it is then tell me if I'm wrong    or right
G#m7 G#m7 
 
If, I fell in love   with you before
C#m C#m 
 
I ever  even knew
I catch your eye then look away
Amaj7 Amaj7 
 
as if       it never happened
G#m7 G#m7 
 
At times I feel   as though I'm caught up
C#m C#m 
 
in    a strange dream
If eyes could talk then mines would tell ya
Amaj7 Amaj7 
 
that     I'm feeling you
G#m7 G#m7 
 
Sometimes I swear  your eyes be telling
C#m C#m 
 
me    the same thing

and put my number in it
Text a nigga
Amaj7 Amaj7 
 
when     your man leave you unattended
G#m7 G#m7 
 
C#m C#m 
 
On a scale from 1     to 10
that girl's a hundred and I want it
Amaj7 Amaj7 
 
G#m7 G#m7 
 
No question, I know destiny well
C#m C#m 
 
And though I sin the Lord
blessing me still
Every saint got a past,
Amaj7 Amaj7 
 
every    sinner got a future
G#m7 G#m7 
 
Every loser  gotta win
C#m C#m 
 
and every winner gotta lose someday
Amaj7 Amaj7 
 
They say it's just     a matter of time
G#m7 G#m7 
 
And if I had    my way
C#m C#m 
 
then you would be    mine, huh
