what ever sounds right
{section: Intro}
Cadd9 G Cadd9 D {i like to palm mute}
I threw a wish in the well,
Don't ask me, I'll never tell
I looked to you as it fell,
and now you're in my way
Cadd9 G Cadd9 D {i like to CONTINUE to palm mute}
I trade my soul for a wish,
pennies and dimes for a kiss
I wasn't looking for this,
but now you're in my way
Cadd9 D - x2 (on the second D strum it longer, and open the mute)
Your stare was holdin', Ripped jeans, skin was showin'
Hot not, wind was blowin'
Where you think you're going, baby?

Hey, I just met you,
and this is crazy,
but here's my number,
so call me, maybe?
It's hard to look right,
at you baby,
but here's my number,
so call me, maybe?
Hey, I just met you,
and this is crazy,
but here's my number,
so call me, maybe?
And all the other boys,
try to chase me,
but here's my number,
so call me, maybe?
{section: Verse 2}
I took no time with the fall
You gave me nothing at all,
but still, you're in my way
I beg, and borrow and steal
Have foresight and it's real
I didn't know I would feel it,
but it's in my way
Your stare was holdin', Ripped jeans, skin was showin'
Hot not, wind was blowin'
Where you think you're going, baby?
(Back to chorus)
Before you came into my life
I missed you so bad
I missed you so bad
I missed you so, so bad
Before you came into my life
I missed you so bad
And you should know that
I missed you so, so bad
