[Intro] G D Em Bm C x2
G                         D
I think we spend too much time

          Em           Bm        C
Talking around what we need to say

 G                            D
I think there's always been something

                          Em      Bm
Something you've been dying to say

               C
Cuz I've been dying to say this

         Am
But the words won't

  D                                 Am
They won't make their way out of my lips

       D
Won't make the shape I need to ask you

 Am        D
Why don't, why don't we try

               Em       Bm         C
Let's try to make what we have real

         Am   D         Am     D
Cuz I laaaaaaah... Oh I laahhhhh...

     Am                 D
Oh I la-la-la-la-la-la-laaaaa...

    G     D
I doooooo

                      Em        Bm  C
I can't say it, but I know that I do

G                         D
I think you biting your lip hides

              Em            Bm        C
Something profound that I wish you'd say

 G
My mind's been racing

      D
My heart's been waiting

          Em          Bm
It just wants me to say

                  C
What we've been hiding away

          Am
But the words won't

D                                 Am
They won't make their way out of my lips

      D
Won't make the shape I need to ask you

 Am        D
Why don't, why don't we try

               Em      Bm         C
Let's try to make what we have real

       Am       D
Cuz I laaaaaaah...

      Am        D
Oh I laahhhhh...

       Am                 D
How I la-la-la-la-la-la-laaaaa...

 G
I do

G                           D
It's just a word- just a single word!

                   Em
Tell myself that telling her

    Bm        C
Is not a big thing

  G
More than a word

            D
It changes what she hear, what she's heard

  Em              Bm           C
What we are and what we once were

              Am                                  D
One of these days I'm going to have to take that risk

                        Am                            D
If I'm going to be the man that you can see yourself with

                 Am                         D
I can feel the weight this word can easily shift

          Em      Bm       C
Oh but I want to make it real

       Am        D
Cuz I laaaaaaah...

      Am         D
Oh I laahhhhh...

      Am                  D
How I la-la-la-la-la-la-laaaaa...

  G
I do

                      Em        Bm      C
I can't say it, but I know that I do...
