Serious

I call you pretty
But it never goes as planned
You think it's funny
I'm just tryin' to be a man
I wanna show you in the best way that I can
That I'm so in love w you
Try to be serious
But you can never tell
It isn't easy to confess how hard I fell
When we've just been friends since the day we met
I don't know what to [C7]do

'Cause how can I tɾy to [C7]cross all [Em]the lines
That we've always had between you [A7and [Bm]I this soon
If I'm just a friend to [C7]you

How can I make you [A7change your mind to [C7]see me different
Wish I could get your eyes on [C7]my [A]prescription
'Cause maybe [Am]all [Em]it takes is the same vision
For me to [C7]get your heartbeat going just as fast as mine
'Cause I could be [Am]your guy
I see you [A7by my [A]side
But maybe [Am]I'm just blind
Or maybe [Am]I'm too serious

I tɾy to [C7]keep it in my [A]head
But it isn't ɾeally goin' well
Feelin' like [F]I gotta meditate
But I can't escape
And now I hate myself
I hate my [A]thoughts
For thinking about you
And I'm thinkin' a lot
'Cause I'm never around you
I would tell you [A7but I don't know how to
Say what I'm feelin'

Now I've been feelin' down
'Cause I feel the distance growin'
Spending more days without you
Don't like [F]where we are goin'
Is it so weird to [C7]think that we could be [Am]more than friends
Am I just overthinkin'
Am I not makin' sense

'Cause maybe [Am]I could change your mind to [C7]see me different
And I could get your eyes on [C7]my [A]prescription
And maybe [Am]all [Em]it takes is the same vision
For me to [C7]get your heartbeat going just as fast as mine
And then I could be [Am]your guy
You know I'd keep you [A7by my [A]side
But maybe [Am]I'm just blind
Or maybe [Am]I'm too serious

La ɾa, la, ɾa ɾa
La ɾa, la, ɾa ɾa
La ɾa, la, ɾa ɾa
I guess I'm too serious

I'd call [Em]you [A7pretty
But it never goes as planned
