[Verse 1]
F                                             C
When I was a kid the things I did were hidden under the grid
G                                                 Am
Young and naive, I never believed that love could be so well hid
F                                           C
With regret I'm willing to bet they say the older you get
G                                    Am
It gets harder to forgive and harder to forget
F                               C
It gets under your shirt like a dagger at work
G                                    Am
The first cut is the deepest but the rest still flippin' hurt
    F                                   C
You build your heart of plastic, you're cynical and sarcastic
        G
And you end up in the corner on your own


[Chorus]
F                                       C
'Cos I'd love to feel love, but I can't stand the rejection
  G                         Am
I hide behind my jokes as a form of protection
  F                              C
I thought I was close, but under further inspection
   G                               Am
It seems I've been running, in the wrong direction, oh no


[Interlude]

[Verse 2]
           F                                     C                          
What's the point in getting your hopes up, when all you're ever getting is choked up?
            G                                Am
When you're coked up, and can't remember the reason why you broke up
       F                                   C
You'll call her in the morning when you're coming down and falling
        G
Like an old man on the side of the road
                   F
Cause when you're apart, you don't wanna mingle
            C
When you're together you wanna be single
         G                                     Am
Ever the chase to taste the kiss of bliss that made your heart tingle
         F
How much greener the grass is
              C
Through those rose tinted glasses
         G
But the butterflies they flutter by and leave us on our arses


[Chorus]
F                                       C
'Cos I want to feel love, but I can't stand the rejection
  G                         Am
I hide behind my jokes as a form of protection
  F                              C
I thought Ii was close, but under further inspection
   G                               Am
It seems I've been running, in the wrong direction
        F                         C
There's fish in the sea for me to make a selection
    G                            Am
I'd jump in, if it wasn't for my ear infection
      F                            C
Cause all I really want is try to make a connection
       G                              Am
But it seems I've been running in the wrong direction, oh no


[Interlude]
F C G Am
F C G G


[Chorus]
            F                              C
oh oh, I'd love to feel love, but I can't stand the rejection
  G                         Am
I hide behind my jokes as a form of protection
  F                              C
I thought I was close, but under further inspection
   G                               Am
It seems I've been running, in the wrong direction

     F                               C
I'd love to feel love, but I can't stand the rejection
  G                         Am
I hide behind my jokes as a form of protection
       F                              C
and I thought I was close, but under further inspection
   G                               Am                      F C
It seems I've been running, in the wrong direction, oh no

 

   G                               Am              F C
It seems I've been running, in the wrong direction
   G                               Am              F C
It seems I've been running, in the wrong direction
   G                               Am              F C
It seems I've been running, in the wrong direction

(one strum)
   G                               Am
It seems I've been running, in the wrong direction
