Passenger – The Wrong Direction (Guitar)

             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 end up in the corner on your own

           F                              C
'Cause 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

              F                                    C
So 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 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
With those rose tinted glasses

        G
But the butterflies they flutter by and leave us on our arses

           F                              C
'Cause 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
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 wanna do is try to make a connection

       G                              Am
But it seems I've been running in the wrong direction, oh oh

           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 oh

   G                              Am                   F   C
It seems like I'm running, in the wrong direction, oh oh

   G                              Am                  F   C
It seems like I'm running, in the wrong direction, oh

         G                               Am                  F   C
Well, it seems I've been running, in the wrong direction, oh no

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