A E
We met in the cafe
G F#m
Our eyes met and you said
A E G F#m
'How was your day? Can I get you anything?'
A E
I didn't even get to say a word
G F#m
I turned around and I spilled something on my shirt
A E G F#m
Man, I felt like a jerk, but you said that it would be okay
F A
We laughed and we talked a bit
F A
I didn't think much of it and then
F A B Dm
You just turned and walked away, away
A
What if I (I)
E G F#m
Tried instead of letting you pass me by
A
Why should I (I)
E G F#m
Deny all the feelings I have inside?
F A F A
Questions and maybes rush through my mind
F A E A
I just keep letting you pass me by (by)
E G F#m
Me by (by), nananana...
A E G F#m
Me by (by), me by (by), nananana...
A
What I could've done
E
What I would've done
G F#m
What I shoul'Ve done, but I didn't do
A E
You smelled so sweet and
G F#m
I couldn't take my eyes off you
A E
I can just imagine
G F#m
What it's like to be with you
A E G F#m
But someday maybe we could, if I could
F A
But I couldn't find the nerve
F A
And it just seemed so absurd
F A B Dm
That I would just let you walk away, away
A
But what if I (I)
E G F#m
Tried instead of letting you pass me by
A
Why should I (I)
E G F#m
Deny all the feelings I have inside?
F A F A
Questions and maybes rush through my mind
F A E A
I just keep letting you pass me by (by)
E G F#m
Me by (by), nananana...
A E G F#m
Me by (by), me by (by), nananana...
F#m E A D
'Cause I'm so tired of letting you slip away (away)
F#m E A G
It's like having a hole and in your glass trying to catch the rain
F#m E
But this time I won't hesitate
And make the same mistake
A
So what if I (I)
E G F#m
Tried instead of letting you pass me by
A
Why should I (I)
E G F#m
Deny all the feelings I have inside?
F A F A
Questions and maybes rush through my mind
F A E A
I just keep letting you pass me by (by)
E G F#m
Me by (by), nananana...
A E G F#m
Me by (by), me by (by), nananana...
A E G F#m
Me by, oh no baby
A E G F#m
Don't you pass me by
Yeah
