A
I want to tell you
                         B
my head is filled with things to say
E7
When you're here, all those words
               A
they seem to slip away

A
When I get near you
                     B
the games begin to drag me down
E7
It's alright, I'll make you maybe
      A
next time around

Chorus:
Bm        E7            A
But if I seem to act unkind
          B7              Bm
It's only me, it's not my mind
Dm6         A
that is confusing things

A
I want to tell you
                      B
I feel hung up and I don't know why
E7
I don't mind, I could wait forever
A
I've got time

Chorus:
Sometimes I wish I knew you well
Then I could speak my mind and tell you
Maybe you'd understand.

I want to tell you
I feel hung up and I don't know why
I don't mind, I could wait forever
I've got time
