Boys Like You

F Cutback G Rewind Em Am Gotta play the replay in my mind F G Em Am It's a little fuzzy but I think I can make it out F G Em Look it's me standing there with my diary Am Hiding the evidence that I wrote down in period three F G Em Am Could this be the moment that I have been dreaming about? F G But then she's there too in pink and blue Em Am I guess all the stars align for you F G Em And I'll take all my heart break and swallow it down Am They can never find out F G All my life I've been hiding myself Em Am Just waiting for a boy like you F G Running home from the bus stop Em Am Crying over stupid words from boys like you F G Not answering the questions in math class Em Am 'Cause I answer them before boys like you F G Promise myself when I'm older and brave Em Am F I will never love a boy like you G Em "I'll never love again..." Am F That's what I said G Em Am When I ran home and told my mum in 1997 F G I still remember the look on her face Em Am She said "Boys like that should be in 2nd place F I know it hurts right now G Em One day you'll realise Am There's no need to hide yourself from the world" F G All my life I've been hiding myself Em Am Just waiting for a boy like you F G Running home from the bus stop Em Am Crying over stupid words from boys like you (There's no need to hide) F G Not answering the questions in math class Em Am 'Cause I answer them before boys like you (There's no need to hide) F G Promise myself when I'm older and brave Em Am I will never love a boy like you (There's no need to hide) F G All my life I've been hiding myself Em Am Just waiting for a boy like you F G Running home from the bus stop Em Am Crying over stupid words from boys like you (There's no need to hide) F G Not answering the questions in math class Em Am 'Cause I answer them before boys like you (There's no need to hide) F G Promise myself when I'm older and brave Em Am I will never love a boy like you (There's no need to hide) F G All my life I've been hiding myself Em Am Just waiting for a boy like you F G Running home from the bus stop Em Am Crying over stupid words from boys like you F G Not answering the questions in math class Em Am 'Cause I answer them before boys like you F G Promise myself when I'm older and brave Em Am I will never love a boy like you
