Intro 1
(A flat major) (A flat major)
Verse 1
(A flat major) I stick with real things
Usually facts and figures
When information's in its place
I minimize the guessing (E flat/G) game
Guess what?
I don't like guessing games (G flat major)
Or when I feel things
Before I know the feelings
How am I supposed to operate
If I'm just tossed around by (D flat/F) fate?
Like on an unexpected date?

Pre-chorus 1
With a stranger who might (E flat minor) talk too fast
Or ask me (A flat major) questions about myself
Before I've de (D flat major) cided that
He can ask me (G flat major) questions about myself
(G flat/F) He might (E flat minor) sit too close
Or call the (A flat major) waiter by his first name
Or eat (D flat major) Oreos
But eat the (G flat major) cookie before the cream?
(G flat/F) But what (E flat minor) scares me the most
What (F7) scares me the most
Chorus 1
Is what if (B flatadd9) when he sees me,
what if he doesn't like it?
What if he runs the other
way and I can't hide (E flat major) from it?
What (E flat minoraj7b5) happens then?
If (B flatadd9) when he knows me,
he's only disappointed
What if I give myself away,
to only get it (E flat major) given back?
I couldn't (E flat minoraj7b5) live with that
So, (F major) I'm just fine, inside my (G minor) shell-shaped mind
This (G minor/F) way I (E flat major) get the best view (E flat/D) (C minor)
So, (E flat minor6) when he sees me, I (A flat major) want him to
Verse 2
(A flat major) I'm not defensive
I'm simply being cautious
I can't risk reckless dating
Due to my miscalculating why (E flat/G)
A certain suitor stands in line (G flat major)
I've seen in movies
Most made for television
You cannot be too careful
When it comes to sharing your life (D flat/F)
I could end up a miserable wife
Pre-chorus 2
He could be (E flat minor) criminal,
some sort of (A flat major) psychopath
Who escaped from an institution
Somewhere where they (D flat major) don't have girls
He could have (G flat major) masterminded
some way to find me
He (G flat/F) could be (E flat minor) color blind
How un (A flat major) trustworthy is that?
He could be (D flat major) less than kind
Or even (G flat major) worse he could be very (G flat/F) nice,
have (E flat minor) lovely eyes
And (E flat minor/Db) make me laugh, come (B6) out of hiding
What do I (F7) do with that?
Oh, God
Chorus 2
What if (B flatadd9) when he sees me
I like him and he knows it?
What if he opens up a door
And I can't close (E flat major) it?
What (A minor7b5) happens then?
If (B flatadd9) when he holds me
My heart is set in motion
I'm not prepared for that
I'm scared of breaking open (E flat major)
(F major) But still I (E flat/G) can't help from hop (F7/A) ing
To find (G minor7) someone to (E flat major) talk to
Who (F major) likes the way I (C minor) am
Someone who (E flat minor6) when he sees me
Wants to again (B flatadd9) (B flatadd9)
(B flatadd9) (B flatadd9)
