Affection chords by The All American Rejects

Guitar chords with lyrics

No-one else did it so-- I did!

FF         A minorAm              DmDm
I always wonder where you are
FF          A minorAm                   DmDm
I'm right beside you, you're so far away
Bb majorBb                               BbmBbm
One moment you're not facing me, one moment you're not chasing me
FF       A minorAm               DmDm
I don't believe in good, goodbyes
FF                    A minorAm                DmDm
'Cause even when the roses die there's still some thorns left in your side
FF           A minorAm              DmDm
It's like a funeral for the bride
Bb majorBb
And I know candy girls, yeah they just rot your teeth
BbmBbm
But I've always been such a sucker for sweets


[Chorus]
FF                A minorAm     Bb majorBb
I need affection
                        FF         A minorAm
All I want right now is affection
Bb majorBb                         FF         A minorAm
I don't mean to point your direction
Bb majorBb                    FF             A minorAm                D MajorD      Bb majorBb
Girl it's not what you do, what you don't do makes me have to talk to you
       FF        A minorAm
about affection
Bb majorBb         FF       A minorAm    Bb majorBb
I need affection
Mmmhmmhmmhmm

[Same Chords]
Somewhere alone is when I died
On the banks of some canal, yeah the river bed of tears I tried to hide
Even fools will believe in lies
And if every word you ever said were true
You'd be my God and I'd just pray to you

[Chorus]
For affection
All I want right now is affection
I don't mean to make a confession
Girl it's not what you do, what you don't do makes a man come on blue
No affection
I need affection

Bb majorBb
Why won't you dance with me?
(Covered in gas and you couldn't catch fire)
Bb majorBb
There's no more romance with me
(I know there's someone else burning your eyes)
Bb majorBb                         BbmBbm
You don't think I see you but I see right through you, baby

[Chorus Chords]
Woah Affection! (Affection!)
All I wanted was affection (Affection!)
All I needed was affection
What you do? (What you do) What you do? (What, what you do )
Affection!
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah. [x3]
You don't think I see you, I see right through you
You don't think I see you, but I do
