[C] [Dm] [C] [Dm] [C]
I'm worried I aint got the nerve to play
I'm told my problem is I act to late
that [Dm]even though I know what I say
it may not transl[C]ate
I only ever try to avoid these games
If I lose my baby then I lose my way
[Dm]Lose like any gambler would
who never could w[C]ait[F]
I aint competing just to [Dm]hold you back[G]
I'm never hiding you just [Am]follow my tracks[F]
I have the kind of thoughts you [Dm]gotta distract
I wouldn't [Am]lean on that[C]
I get no feeling the ordinary way
I'm only guessing, guess I like it that way
you [Dm]see that habit still remains
of hiding from ch[C]ange
the only voice that answers me
is the voice of mine at age thirteen
who [Dm]learnt you never get no place
with the weakest handsh[C]ake[F]
I lie under and h[Dm]ide at the worst
I prepare for the [Am]end at the first[F]
I have the kind of thought that s[Dm]leeps like a curse
and it [Am]leans on her
