Verse 1:
A minorAm         DmDm
One look sends it coursing through the veins
DmDm
Oh, how the feeling races
A minorAm         DmDm
Back up to their brains
     DmDm
To form expressions on their stupid faces
A minorAm         DmDm
They don't want to say hello
        DmDm
Like I want to say hello
 A minorAm              DmDm
Well, the heartbeat's at its peak
       DmDm
When you're coming up to speak
      A5A5 C5C5   D5D5  E5E5 G5G5
And oh, I'm so tense, never tenser
A5A5     C5C5  D5D5     E5E5 G5G5
 Could all go a bit Frank Spencer
A5A5    C5C5   D5D5  E5E5 G5G5
 And I'm talking gibberish
A5A5     C5C5      D5D5    E5E5  G5G5
Tip of the tongue but I can't deliver it
A5A5 C5C5 D5D5 E5E5 G5G5
  Properly
     A5A5  C5C5    D5D5   E5E5 G5G5
Oh, it's all getting on top of me
     A5A5      C5C5     D5D5   E5E5 G5G5 A5A5  C5C5 D5D5  E5E5 G5G5
And if it weren't this dark you'd see how red my face has gone, yeah

Instrumental:

Verse 2:
   A minorAm   DmDm
Everybody's trying to crack the jokes and that
  DmDm
To make you smile
 A minorAm          DmDm
Those that claim that they're not showing off
   DmDm
Are drowning in denial
   A minorAm         DmDm
But they're not half as bad as me
  DmDm
Say anything and I'll agree
        A minorAm       DmDm
'Cause when it comes to acting up
  DmDm
I'm sure I could write the book
          DmDm     C majorC      A minorAm
And now that you're more than a part in the play
       DmDm    C majorC     A minorAm
It's slightly easier to think what to say
DmDm     C majorC   A minorAm
You had us all, standing on our heads
DmDm    C majorC
Doing our best tricks, yeah

A5A5  C5C5  D5D5  E5E5 G5G5

Verse 3:
F5F5 E5E5  A5A5    F5F5  E5E5  F5F5
 Never again, well, never again, no
      F5F5 E5E5   A5A5       F5F5 E5E5   A5A5
Will there be another one quite as desirable as you
 A minorAm                   DmDm
One look sends it coursing through the veins
       DmDm
Oh, how the feeling races
 A minorAm
Back up to their brains
