Verse
[F]When i was a kid the things i did were hidden [C]under the grid
[G]Young and naive, i never believed that love could [Am]be so well hid
[F]With regret I'm willing to bet they say 'the [C]older you get
[G]It gets harder to forgive and harder [Am]to forget
[F]It gets under your shirt like a [C]dagger at work
[G]The first cut is the deepest but the [Am]rest still flippin' hurt
You [F]build your heart of plastic, you're [C]cynical and sarcastic
and you [G]end up in the corner on your own
Chorus
[F]'Cos I'd love to feel love, but i can't [C]stand the rejection
I [G]hide behind my jokes as a [Am]form of protection
I [F]thought i was close, but under [C]further inspection
It [G]seems I've been running, in the [Am]wrong direction, oh no
Filler

Verse
What's the [F]point in getting your hopes up, when all you're ever getting is
[C]choked up?
When you're [G]coked up, and can't remember the [Am]reason why you broke up
You'll [F]call her in the morning when you're [C]coming down and falling
Like an [G]old man on the side of the road
When you're [F]apart, you don't wanna mingle
When you're [C]together you wanna be single
Ever the [G]chase to taste the kiss of bliss that [Am]made your heart tingle
How much [F]greener the grass is
Through those [C]rose tinted glasses
And the [G]butterflies that flutter by and leave us on our arses
Chorus
[F]'Cos I want to feel love, but i can't [C]stand the rejection
I [G]hide behind my jokes as a [Am]form of protection
I [F]thought i was close, but under [C]further inspection
It [G]seems I've been running, in the [Am]wrong direction
There's [F]fish in the sea for me to [C]make a selection
I'd [G]jump in, if it wasn't for my [Am]ear infection
[F]All I really want is just to [C]make a connection
But it [G]seems I've been running in the [Am]wrong direction, oh no
