  B                      C#m
Red flags, you look for red flags
          A
I never see 'em
  B                     C#m
Star signs, I watch the night sky
             A
You don't believe 'em

         B
And now you think you need a second
            C#m                                A
You need a second, said you see right through me

But I think you are the best thing
You were the best thing that ever happened to me

Chorus:
  E
You've been living with your doubts
 B/D#
leaving me in the dark
    C#m
And I've been tying ribbons for you
A
all around my heart
   E
Giving you more than you gave me,
    B/D#
now I'm falling apart
      C#m
'Cause if I left tomorrow
   A                            E B/D#
I don't think you would follow me
       C#m
'Cause if I left tomorrow
   A                            E B/D# C#m A
I don't think you would follow me

Flaws, babe
You look for flaws, babe
That don't exist here
But I stay
Yeah, I still stay
'Cause I still need you

And now you think you need a second
You need a second, said you see right through me
But I think you are the best thing
You were the best thing that ever happened to me

Chorus:
You've been living with your doubts
leaving me in the dark
And I've been tying ribbons for you
all around my heart
Giving you more than you gave me,
now I'm falling apart
'Cause if I left tomorrow
I don't think you would follow me

'Cause if I left tomorrow
I don't think you would follow me
