[F]I know why you [Bb]asked me [F]here
[F]Youre not sure the [C]coast is [F]clear
[F]Youre about to [Bb]speak your [F]mind
[F]This small talk [C]is a bad [F]sign
Chorus
How many [C]days have I [Bb]been here to[F]night
How many [C]days have I [Bb]been here to[F]night
You keep stalling probably
Stretch it to eternity
Cant feel guilty say your lines
Breakin my hearts not a crime
Chorus
Bridge:
[Bb]I cant take [F]the suspense
[Bb]How long can I go [C]on like this
How many [C]days have I [Bb]been here to[F]night
Solo
Chorus
Bridge
Chorus
How many days have I been here tonight
Since Ive been here tonight
