C (x32010@1)                     E (022100@1)You hit the nail on the head tonight 
D (xx0232@1)                           CEverything (x32010@1)you do is in spite
     E (022100@1)   D (xx0232@1)I'll be alright

Verse 1

C (x32010@1)          EHow (022100@1)does she do this to me? 
D (xx0232@1)                          CHow (x32010@1)have I fallen completely?
             EShe's (022100@1)just a girl
             DBut (xx0232@1)she's my world

Consequently
C (x32010@1)                 EShe (022100@1)reads books and I read hearts
    D (xx0232@1)                           CThe (x32010@1)line we color in never starts 
            E (022100@1)              DBut (xx0232@1)she can kill me with her smile

I'd brush it off but I'd be in denial.

C,E,D (4x)
