Em                                      C        Am  
 Have you got colour in your cheeks?
Am                                                      Em  
 Do you ever get the fear that you can' t shift the type
                                 Em  
that sticks around like summat in your teeth?
                     C                  Am  
Are there some aces up your sleeve?
                                            Em  
Have you no idea that you' re in deep?
                                    Em  
I dreamt about you nearly every night this week
             C                  Am  
How many secrets can you keep?
                                                Em  
Cause there' s this tune I found that makes me think of you somehow
        Em  
And I play it on repeat
C             Am  
 Until I fall asleep
                              B  
Spilling drinks on my settee

        C  
Do I wanna know
            Am  
if this feeling flows both ways?
          Em  
Sad to see you go
             Em  
Was sorta hoping that you' d stay
        C  
Baby we both know
             Am  
That the nights were mainly made
                 Em  
for saying things that you can' t say tomorrow day

                        Em  
Crawlin'  back to you
                     C          Am  
Ever thought of calling when you' ve had a few
                 Em  
Cos I always do
             Em                  C             Am  
Maybe I' m too busy being yours to fall for somebody new
                            Em  
Now I' ve thought it through
                        Em  
Crawlin'  back to you

                          C      Am  
So have you got the guts?
                                                Em  
Been wondering if your hearts still open
                         Em  
And if so I wanna know what time it shuts
C                    Am  
 Simmer down and pucker up
I' m sorry to interrupt
      Em  
It' s just I' m constantly on the cusp
                 C            Am  
Of trying to kiss you
                                        Em  
I don' t know if you feel the same as I do
                    C            Am  
But we could be together
                  B  
if you wanted to
