The Dmaj7 should actually be as Esus2/D but it sounds terrible on guitar.
{[Verse 1]}
A/D Amaj7
My baby, there's something you should know
A/D Amaj7
About me, before you propose
Am7
Although we have known each other for quite a while
{[Pre-Chorus 1]}
Esus4/B
Whenever you need me
Am7
I'm gonna try to make it through to you
Esus4/B
But I'm not always ready to
Am7 Esus4/B
When you are not watching
I prepare myself for you
Am7 Esus4/B
But I worry that I might have been
F#m
Misunderstood
{[Chorus 1]}
E D
I gotta tell you, I wanna tell you
F#m E D
I can be lazy but I'll try not to
F#m E D
Maybe I'm not a very honest person
E Dmaj7
Right now you're sure that you love me, but
Bm C#m
Are you really sure that you know all about me
D# C#m G#
Up and down and down down down down we go
{[Verse 2]}
A/D Amaj7
My baby, a lot could happen before tomorrow
A/D Amaj7
Think about the pain before you take another dose
Am7
Who knows if it could be good for you after all
{Pre-Chorus 2]}
Esus4/B
Whatever you give me
Am7
I'm gonna try to give you something new
Esus4/B
Not something you've already chewed
Am7 Esus4/B
When you are not watching
I prepare myself for you
Am7 Esus4/B
Because this could be good
F#m
What's buggin' you
{[Chorus 2]}
E D
I gotta tell you, I wanna tell you
F#m E D
I can be crazy when I don't want to
F#m E D
Maybe I'm not a very honest person
E Dmaj7
What if I don't want a baby yet
Bm C#m
Is it okay if I'm not cute and naive
D# C#m G#
Up and down and down down down down we go
F#m
This could be good
E D
So I gotta tell you, I wanna tell you
F#m E D
You can be shady... Whatcha goin' through?
F#m E D
Maybe you're not a very honest person
E Dmaj7
You say you're sure that you love me
Bm C#m
How could that be when you keep so much from me
D# C#m
Turn the tables 'round, 'Round and 'round we
F#m E D
Go
F#m E D
F#m E D
E Dmaj7
Right now you're sure that you love me, but
Bm C#m
Are you really ready to know more about me
D# C#m C#m
Up and down and down, 'round and 'round and 'round
G#
Where do we go
