D Bm
Well here you come,
D Bm
And there you go,
D Bm
Round and round
G A
And round I know,
D Bm G A D Bm G A
It's safer just to let you be today.
D Bm
Well my mind says yes,
D Bm
But my lips say no,
D Bm
And my heart says move
G A
But my legs won't go,
D Bm G A D Bm G A
I lost another chance to say hello.

(Chorus)
D Bm G A
I'm nervous everytime you walk by,
D Bm G A
This wall between us is too strong,
D Bm G A
It's safer just to stand in silence,
D Bm G A
Don't know if it's right or wrong,
Just give me a sign.
At a loss for words,
What role to play?
Need a noun and a verb
And a joke to say,
Maybe it's best if I just walk away.
What if I'm right?
How can I know?
I hate things out of my control,
It's a two way street and traffic's moving slow
(Bridge) D Bm D Bm D Bm G A D Bm G A D Bm G A 2x
(Chorus)
Oh, its safer just to let you be today
That should give you a basic idea...the second verse, and such continue the way the rest
the song does
