 D            Gm
Baby your so beautiful
              D                Gm
And when I'm near you I can't breathe
Bm                     A
A girl like you gets what she wants
When she want it
G
Your so out of league
D               Gm
I show you no emotion
               D                       Gm
Don't let you see what you're doin' to me
Bm              A
I imagine the two of us together
               G
But I've been livin' in reality

F#m                 Bm
Fear of rejection, kept my love inside
D                         G
But time is running out, so damn my foolish pride

Chorus:
         G            A         Bm
I don't care if you think I'm crazy
         G             A        Bm
Doesn't matter if you turn out bad
          G               A      Bm
Cos I've got not fear of losin' you
           G             A     D
You can't lose what you never had
         G         A          Bm
Now I'm gonna confess that I love you
        G            A    Bm
I been keepin' it inside feelin' I could die
            G     A         Bm
Now if you turn away then that's OK
    G
At least we'll have a moment
   A        Am
Before you say goodbye
           D
You can't lose what you never had

Rules are made for breaking (Breaking)
Nothing ventured, nothing gained
I'll be no worse off than I am right now
And I might never get that chance again, baby

Fear of rejection, kept my love inside
Told myself I wouldn't love you but I lied

Chorus

F           C/E             D#
Here on the outside lookin' in
                 Dm
Don't wanna stay dreamin' 'bout
      Gm
What could have been
           D                 Cm
I need to hear you speak my name
Dm            Dsus4   D
Even if you shoot me down in flames

Chorus

You can't lose what you never had
You can't lose what you never had
