C
I wanna call you up
Am7
Tell you how I feel
Fmaj7
But I might scare you away if
I get too real
C
So I won't text back
Am7
For a couple hours
Fmaj7
What I really wanna do is
Bring you flowers

     C
I'm not gonna hold your hand
Am7
Ask if you wanna dance
Fmaj7
Not gonna take you home, even though

Chorus:
C
I just wanna give you everythin'
Em7
Show you I'm a Southern gentleman
Fmaj7
All I wanna do is let you in
But good guys, good guys never win
C
I just wanna be the one you call
Em7
Anything you need, anything at all
Fmaj7
All I wanna do is let you in
But good guys, good guys never win

When you stay out late
And I don't hear back
I always wonder where you've been but
I don't ask
You're the one I want
I don't wanna share
But when you talk about someone else
I act like I don't care

I'm not gonna hold your hand
Ask if you wanna dance
Not gonna take you home, even though

Chorus

C                    Em7
So I'm gonna play it cool

'Til I know you want me too

Chorus

C                    Am7

C                    Am7

'Til I know you want me too
C                    Am7
So I'm gonna play it cool
Fmaj7                   Fmaj7
'Til I know you want me too
