B5                             A5        G5
Slipped through the front door without a key
B5                               A5            G5
It’s always unlocked when you're waiting for me
B5                          A5                      G5
And I have to wait till your roommates were sleeping
B5                      C5               G5
They give you a hard time that I was over

B5                  A5          G5
Yours eyes light up always the same
B5                          A5        G5
Just like I was taking you on a first date
B5                       A5               G5
If you have no reason for feeling this way
B5 C5 G5
