Strum
D-DU-UDU
 (Na na  na na na)
 He  takes your hand
 I die  a little
I  watch your eyes
 And I'm  in riddles
Why  can't you look  at me like that?
 (Na na  na na na)
When  you walk by
 I try  to say it
But  then I freeze
 And never  do it
My  tongue gets tied
 The words get trapped
 I hear the beat  of my heart getting  louder
 Whenever I'm near  you
 But I see you  with him slow  dancing
Tearing  me apart
 Cause you  don't see
 Whenever  you kiss him
I'm  breaking,
Oh  how I wish  that was  me
 (Na na  na na na)
He  looks at you
 The way  that I would
Does  all the things, I know  that I could
If  only time,  could just turn back
 Cause I got  three little words
 That I've  always been dying to tell  you
 But I see you  with him slow  dancing
Tearing  me apart
 Cause you  don't see
 Whenever  you kiss him
I'm  breaking,
Oh  how I wish  that was  me
With  my hands on your  waist
 While we dance in the  moonlight
 I wish it was  me
 That you’ll call later  on
 Cause you wanna say good  night
 Cause I see  you with him slow  dancing
Tearing  me apart
 Cause you  don't  see
 But I see you  with him  slow  dancing
Tearing  me apart
 Cause you don't see
 Whenever you  kiss  him
I'm  breaking,
Oh  how I wish
Oh  how I wish
Oh  how I wish,  that was me...
Oh  how I wish,  that was me
