               E
Well, maybe I came on too strong.
G#m     C#m            A B
Maybe I waited too long.
          E
Maybe I played my cards wrong,
                            G#m
Oh, just a little bit wrong;
      C#m A
Baby, I
  B
Apologise for it.

  A
   I could fall, or I could fly
 C#m
   Here in your aeroplane.
 G#m
   And I could live, I could die
   A
   Hanging on the words you say.
   And I’ve been known to give my all,
 C#m
   And jumping in harder than
    B
   Ten thousand rocks on the lake.

Chorus:
                       E
     So don’t call me baby
       G#m      C#m
     Unless you mean it.
    A           B7          E
     And don’t tell me you need me
            G#m     C#m
     If you don’t believe it.
         A                B
     So let me know the truth
       C#m     B7              E
     Before I dive right into you.

          E
You’re a mystery,
I have travelled the world,
G#m         C#m                 A      B
And there’s no other girl like you, no one.
             E
What’s your history? (What’s your history?)
                          G#m       C#m
Do you have a tendency to lead some people on?
          A           B
‘Cause I heard you do. Mm.

   I could fall, or I could fly
   Here in your aeroplane.
   And I could live, I could die
   Hanging on the words you say.
   And I’ve been known to give my all,
   And lie awake every day.
   Don’t know how much I can take.

Chorus

   Mm.
   I could fall, or I could fly
   Here in your aeroplane.
   And I could live, I could die
   Hanging on the words you say.
   And I’ve been known to give my all,
   Sitting back looking at
   Every mess that I’ve made.

Chorus

     Before I dive right into you,
     And before I dive right into you.
