E    B          F#m   A
We started as friends
E              B          F#m   A
But something happened inside me
       E        B          F#m A
Now I'm reading into everything
E               B               F#m      A
But there's no sign you really like me, baby

G#m              A        E             B
You don't ever notice me turning on my charm
   G#m            A                Bsus4 B
Or wonder why I'm always where you are

Chorus:
      E        F#m  A
I've made it obvious
          B               E
I've done everything but sing it
       E            F#m
I've crushed on you so long
    A              B
But on and on you get me wrong
     E      F#m         A
I'm not so good with words
     B              C#m
And since you never notice
     B            F#m
The way that we belong
      B
I'll say it in a love song

I've heard you talk about (Heard you talk about)
How you want someone just like me (Just like me)
Ooh
Every time I ask you out (Time I ask you out)
We never move pass friendly, no no
You don't ever notice how I stare when we're alone
Or wonder why I keep you on the phone

Chorus:
I've made it obvious
I done everything but sing it
I crushed on you so long (So long)
But on and on you get me wrong
I'm not so good with words
And since you never noticed
The way that we belong
I'll say it in a love song, yeah

B                       C#m           A
You are my very first thought in the morning
G#m     E            B
And my last at nightfall
                       C#m          A
You are the love that came without warning
  F#m         G#m           A
I need you, I want you to know

Chorus:
I've made it obvious
So finally I'll sing it
(I've crushed on you so long)
Oh yeah, woo, ooh
I'm not so good with words
Since you never notice
The way that we belong
I'll say it in a love song

The love song, I'll sing it
until the day you're holding me, ooh
I've wanted you so long but on
and on you get me wrong, ooh yeah
I more than adore you but since
you never seem to see
(More than adore you)
Since you never seem to see
I'll say it in this love song
