Verse 1:
    G                F
I went looking for it, could have been anyone's kiss
      G              F
Throwing my arms at no-one, when I gave up I found love
     G                 F
Therefore flows through my mind, and it's growing all the time
    G                  F
I do myself a disservice, to feel this weak, to be this nervous

Feels so unfamiliar, you say something loving

      G              F
Your touch stays on my skin, I feel it start sinking in
       G            F
Here come my insecurities, I almost expect you to leave
     G                F
Were you really looking for me, try your best to reassure me
     G               F
I wasn't patient to meet you, am I too needy, am I too eager

       G                           F
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know what this is but it doesn't feel wrong
       G                           F
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know what this is but it doesn't feel wrong
