This song is off the Singles soundtrack. The chord are simple; some
would say the song is simplistic, but that doesn't change the fact
that it is an enjoyable tune. Here are what I think are the chords.
Basic Pattern of verses: F/FF/G5 F/FD5 G5
-- Listen to the song to understand what I mean. This is played
during the verses and between sections, generally.
The F-- - C5 means go right into the basic pattern.
Begins:
Basic Pattern X 4, along with the "na na na's"
F5 C5 F5 C5
You're shooting glances and they're so hard to read
F5 C5 G5
I misconstrue what you mean
F5 C5 F5 C5
Slip me a napkin, and now that's a start
D5 G5
Is this your name or a doctor's eye chart?
(Chorus)
F5 G5 A5 F-- - C5
I try to comprehend you but I got a dyslexic heart.
F5 G5 A5 F-- - C5
I ain't dying to offend you but I got a dyslexic heart.
(Second Verse)--chords same as first
Thanks for the book, now my table is steady
It's a library or a bar
Between the covers I judge you as ready
Half-angel, half-tart(?)
(chorus)
F5 C5 F5 C5
Do I read you correctly? You need me directly
D5 G5
Help me with this part
F5 G5 A5 F-- - C5
Do I date you do I hate you do I got a dyslexic heart?
G5 F5
You keep swayin' What are you sayin'?
G5 A5 F5
Think about stayin' Are you just playin', making passes
E5 G5
Well my heart could use some glasses....
F5 G5
Are you stayin'? What are you savin'?
F5 A5 F5
Or are you swayin'? Just playing, making passes
E5 G5
Well my heart could use some glasses...
(Chorus)--same chords, these words
I try to comprehend you but I got a dyslexic heart
Do I read you correctly? I need you directly.
Help me with this part.
Do I love you do I hate you--I got a dyslexic heart
--The song fades away with the basic pattern & lots
of na na na's
