Verse 1:           
           
E5 
I would say I like you if I 
A5 
thought that you would care 
E5 
'cause this obsessive flirting 
A5               B5 
isn't going anywhere 
E5 
I want to try to show you that I 
A5 
I really can be cool 
E5 
but when my mouth starts flapping 
A5                       B5 
I start sounding like a fool 
 
'cause I want 
 
Chorus: 
E5        A5 
Love and company 
B5                   B5 
tenderness and your sympathy 
E5             A5                  B5 B5 
These are the things I'm longing for 
    E5          A5 
Not sex, not a one night stand 
     B5                           B5 
just walking by the water while I'm holding your hand 
E5                 A5                          B5 
I've been looking around for somebody that's true 
                   E5 
Now I'm looking at you 
 
Verse 2: 
  E5 
I want to do some things and spend some 
A5 
time with someone 
    E5 
Not sex or drugs or alcohol 
     A5                  B5 
just good old fashioned fun! 
    E5 
And you, you seem so perfect in well, 
A5 
almost every way 
     E5 
so I hope you can decipher 
         A5         B5 
what I'm trying to say 
 
I want 
 
{Chorus} 
 
Bridge: 
E5 
Now that I have told you this, I'm 
A5 
feeling deathly sick 
       E5 
'cause maybe being so honest 
    A5                B5 
was indeed, not very slick 
      E5 
But I can't help this attraction, 'cause I, 
A5 
I know that you're so fine 
      E5 
And I swear I'll never rest 
          A5              B5 
until the day I make you mi-i-ine 
 
'cause I want: 
 
 {chorus}
