Looking forward til next time, I promise that I wont drag my feet
F Gm INTERLUDE
Always looking for reasons to walk on your street, oh yeah

C
But something always happens whenever were together, it shows

VERSE 2:
Gm Bb C
I feel that Im out of touch, not very good at pretending
Gm Bb C
But when you sail in my path, I dont know what Im defending
F Gm F Gm
Looking forward till next time, I might as well just admit defeat
F Gm INTERLUDE
Its the bridge to falling I always repeat, oh yeah
While guitar #1 plays the chords, a second guitar fills in on the first two lines of the verse.
Fill #1 comes right after "...pretending", and Fill #2 comes right after "...defending"
