Intro: Am Pa-doo-boop-pa-pa, ooh C Pa-doo-boop-pa-pa, ooh Verse 1: Em G I could never have imagined you would fall in love with me Am C And I can't convince myself that you would never want to leave Em G Daddy, trauma has emasculated all my common sense Am C So I'm looking through the lens of an impending abandonment Em G All the voices in my head say I'm not worth the time you spent Am C So I search for an escape before you notice your mistake
