[Verse 1]
C E7
He's gotta go too small
Am
But he hides it behind anything he can
Fmaj7 C
Why's he gotta be so shy
E7
Doesn't he know he's beautiful
Am
At least that's what I think, but
Fmaj7
For being honest he's
C
the only one in my dreams
E7
I could write out all the songs in the world
Am Fmaj7
and I still don't know what it takes to be his girl
C
He's oh so simple
E7 Am
But the most complicated thing
Fmaj7
I hope he sees that I'm doing everything I can to be with him
[Chorus]
C E7
But I-I-I could sing the whole night
Am Fmaj7
But I can't seem to get it into his mind
C E7
That I'm doing everything I can
Am
Cause I really do adore him
Fmaj7
But it's not going as planned
Am G Fmaj7
But I can't wait forever and a day
Am G Fmaj7 C E7
How many more songs do I need to write to make you stay
Am Fmaj7
To make you stay
C E7 Am Fmaj7
Oh, oh oh oh oh ohooo
C E7 Am
Oh, oh oh oh oh ohooo
[Verse 2]
C E7
He's different than the rest cause
Am
He's not trying to be the best
Fmaj7 C
Never met someone so genuine and loving as him
E7
This isn't where he hurts
Am
Break down the pieces of his heart to explore
Fmaj7
Every time I'm with him,
C
I just wanna see more and more
E7 Am
Thousands of lyrics I can sing to him
Fmaj7
But when I see him it all starts happening again
[Chorus]
C E7
But I-I-I could sing the whole night
Am Fmaj7
But I can't seem to get it into his mind
C E7
That I'm doing everything I can
Am
Cause I really do adore him
Fmaj7
But it's not going as planned
Am G Fmaj7
But I can't wait forever and a day
Am G Fmaj7 C E7
How many more songs do I need to write to make you stay
Am Fmaj7
To make you stay
C E7 Am Fmaj7
Oh, oh oh oh oh ohooo
C E7 Am
Oh, oh oh oh oh ohooo
[Chorus]
C G
I-I-I could sing the whole night
Am
But I can't seem to get it into his mind
C E7
That I'm doing everything I can
Am
Cause I really do adore him
Fmaj7
But it's not going as planned
Am G Fmaj7
But I can't wait forever and a day
Am G Fmaj7 C E7
How many more songs do I need to write to make you stay
Am Fmaj7
To make you stay
