        F
When I get home
Am                  G
You better not be there
               Em
We're placin' bets you won't

C          G    F
Shed your modesty
              Am               G
And the only thing to leave behind
             Em           C   G 
Is your own skin on the floor

Chorus:
            F
Don't you shy away (Ah-ah-ah)
Dm
Manifest a ceiling
          Am
When you shy away (Ah-ah-ah)
 G                  G
Searchin' for that feelin'
              F
Just like an "I love you" (Ooh, ooh)
     Dm
That isn't words (Ooh, ooh)
       Am                           G 
Like a song he wrote, that's never heard
         G
(Ah-ah-ah)
Don't you (Ssh)

          F
When you get home
     Am          G
You barely recognize the pictures
Em
They put in a frame

             C          G 
'Cause you shed your modesty
F                 Dm
Don't circle the track
               Am
Take what you have
                             G 
And leave your skin on the floor

Chorus

        F
When I get home
Dm
Boy, you better not be there
Am
You're long gone

     G        G
You shed your modesty
F                 Dm
Don't circle the track
                        Am
Just break the cycle in half
                            G   G
And leave your skin on the floor

Chorus:
            F
Don't you shy away (Ah-ah-ah)
Dm
Manifest a ceiling
          Am
When you shy away (Ah-ah-ah)
 G                  G
Searchin' for that feelin'
              F
Just like an "I love you" (Ooh, ooh)
     Dm
That isn't words (Ooh, ooh)
       Am                           G 
Like a song he wrote, that's never heard
(Ah-ah-ah)
              F           Dm        Am  G  G
That's never heard (Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah)

Am
An "I love you"
That isn't words
Like a song he wrote
              G 
That's never heard
            F     Dm Am  G  G
Don't you shy away
