I stick with rea[Ab]l things
Usually facts and figures
When information's in its place
I minimize the guessing [Gm]game
guess what
I don't like guessing [F#]games or when I feel things
before I know the feelings
How am I supposed to operate
if I'm just tossed around by f[Fm]ate
Like on an unexpected date
With a stranger who might
[Ebm]Talk too fast
Or ask me q[Ab]uestions about myself
before I've [Db]decided that
He can ask me q[F#]uestions about myself
He might [Ebm]sit too close
or call the [Ab]waiter by his first name
Or eat [Db]Oreos
but eat the [F#]cookie before the cream
but what s[Ebm]cares me the most...
What s[F]cares me the most...
[Bb]Is what if when he sees me
What if he doesn't like it
What if he runs the other way
and I can't [Eb]hide from it
[Eb]What happens then if
[Bb]When he knows me
He's only disappointed
What if I give myself away to only
get it [Eb]given back
I couldn't live with that
So [F]I'm just fine inside my s[Gm]hell-shaped mind
[F]This way[Eb] I get the best [Cm]view
So [Ebm]when he sees me I want him to
