I [C]surely never [G]really wanted to [D]hear one
But [G]who can say they only [D]get what they [Em]want
Something [C]like this seems to [D]come to like [Em]everyone,
like [G]everyone
[G]She is pretty [D]young and pretty [G]stunning
[C]These are things I’ve [G]never really [D]been
I [G]think she knows that [D]she’s really [Em]something
But I’ve [C]never known what [D]she thinks of me
[Em]if she thinks of [G]me
There’s a [G]girl I often think of fondly
I seldom [Bm]see her but I sometimes [C]wonder
if she [Dadd4]ever thinks of [D]me
I try to [G]be,[C] just a [Am]friend
But in the [G] end that [C]isn’t always[Dadd1] easy[G]
I seldom [Bm]see her but I sometimes [C]wonder
if she [Dadd4]ever thinks of [D]me
I try to [G]be,[C] just a [Am]friend
But in the [G] end that [C]isn’t always[Dadd1] easy[G]
I’ve never been an expert on romancing
And I’ve never gone in for parties or for dancing
When I was young I vowed I’d keep my pants on
Until I’d found myself an answer to the question
what’s going on
I still don’t [G]know who I [D]am or where I’m [G]going
And [C]maybe I [G]need to go [D]alone
I don’t know her number and I have no phone
So [C]maybe it’s [D]better if she[Em] never [D]knows, never [G]knows
I know a [C]crush is not [G] what makes a [C]catch
And there’s [Em]so much more to [G] what makes a [D]match
But you [D]can’t know love, until you [C] can’t go [G]back
How [C]can you know when it's [G]all right,
when it’s [D]right to light the [G]match
And there’s [Em]so much more to [G] what makes a [D]match
But you [D]can’t know love, until you [C] can’t go [G]back
How [C]can you know when it's [G]all right,
when it’s [D]right to light the [G]match
There’s a [G]girl I often think of fondly
I seldom [Bm]see her but I sometimes [C]wonder
if she [Dadd4]ever thinks of [D]me
I try to [G]be,[C] just a [Am]friend
But in the [G] end that [C]isn’t always[Dadd4] easy[G]
I seldom [Bm]see her but I sometimes [C]wonder
if she [Dadd4]ever thinks of [D]me
I try to [G]be,[C] just a [Am]friend
But in the [G] end that [C]isn’t always[Dadd4] easy[G]
Staying safe is not my higher aim
But once things change they don’t
go back the same
When you play with fire you can catch aflame
And I know that love is never just a game, not a game
‘cause when you’re truly true to your heart
How could you ever make another break apart
But you can’t stop everything you start
And so many roads lead straight to a breaking heart,
it’s a dangerous art
I know a [C]crush is not [G] what makes a [C]catch
And there’s [Em]so much more to [G] what makes a [D]match
But you [D]can’t know love, until you [C] can’t go [G]back
How [C]can you know when it's [G]all right,
when it’s [D]right to light the [G]match
And there’s [Em]so much more to [G] what makes a [D]match
But you [D]can’t know love, until you [C] can’t go [G]back
How [C]can you know when it's [G]all right,
when it’s [D]right to light the [G]match
There’s a [G]girl I often think of fondly
I seldom [Bm]see her but I sometimes [C]wonder
