F5         A5              D5
I always wonder where you are
F5          A5                   D5
I'm right beside you, you're so far away
Bb5                               Bb5
One moment you're not facing me, one moment you're not chasing me
F5       A5               D5
I don't believe in good, goodbyes
F5                    A5                D5
'Cause even when the roses die there's still some thorns left in your side
F5           A5              D5
It's like a funeral for the bride
Bb5                      
And I know candy girls, yeah they just rot your teeth
Bb5
But I've always been such a sucker for sweets

[Chorus]
F5                A5     Bb5
I need affection
                        F5         A5
All I want right now is affection
Bb5                         F5         A5   
I don't mean to point your direction
Bb5                    F5             A5                D5      Bb5   
Girl it's not what you do, what you don't do makes me have to talk to you
       F5        A5
about affection
Bb5         F5       A5    Bb5
I need affection
Mmmhmmhmmhmm

[Same Chords]
Somewhere alone is when I died
On the banks of some canal, yeah the river bed of tears I tried to hide
Even fools will believe in lies
And if every word you ever said were true
You'd be my God and I'd just pray to you

[Chorus]
For affection
All I want right now is affection
I don't mean to make a confession
Girl it's not what you do, what you don't do makes a man come on blue
No affection
I need affection

Bb5
Why won't you dance with me?
(Covered in gas and you couldn't catch fire)
Bb5
There's no more romance with me
(I know there's someone else burning your eyes)
Bb5                         Bb5
You don't think I see you but I see right through you, baby
[Chorus Chords]
Woah Affection! (Affection!)
All I wanted was affection (Affection!)
All I needed was affection
What you do? (What you do) What you do? (What, what you do?)
Affection!
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah. [x3]
You don't think I see you, I see right through you
You don't think I see you, but I do
