[Intro]
C                   B7 
Putting my defenses up 
       Em                    Am 
'Cause I don't wanna fall in love 
     C 
If I ever did that 
  
I think I'd have a heart attack
[Strophe]
C                 G              D 
Never put my love out on the line 
               Em             C 
Never said yes to the right guy 
                  G                 D 
Never had trouble getting what I want 
                          Em                  C 
But when it comes to you, I'm never good enough  
       G       D 
When I don't care 
           Em                 C 
I can play 'em like a Ken doll 
           G     D 
Won't wash my hair 
                   Em              C 
Then make 'em bounce like a basketball  
                G                D 
But you make me wanna act like a girl 
               Em            C 
Paint my nails and wear high heels 
                G 
Yes you make me so nervous 
       B7 
That I just can't hold your hand
[Refrain]
            C        G   D 
You make me glo-o-o-o-o-ow, but I cover up 
Em           C        G   D 
Won't let it sho-o-o-o-o-ow, so I'm 
C                   B7 
Putting my defenses up 
       Em                    D 
'Cause I don't wanna fall in love 
     C             B7 
If I ever did that 
                           Em      C   G 
I think I'd have a heart atta-a-a-a-a-ack 
       D                   Em      C   G 
I think I'd have a heart atta-a-a-a-a-ack 
       D 
I think I'd have a heart attack
[Strophe]
C                   G                 D 
Never break a sweat for the other guys 
                      Em              C 
When ya come around, I get paralyzed 
                    G          D 
And every time I try to be myself 
                   Em                C 
It comes out wrong like a cry for help  
          G      D 
It's just not fair 
                    Em              C 
Pain's more trouble than love is worth 
       G     D 
I gasp for air 
                 Em                   C 
It feels so good, but you know it hurts  
                G                D 
But you make me wanna act like a girl 
               Em           C 
Paint my nails and wear perfume 
                G 
For you, make me so nervous 
       B7 
That I just can't hold your hand
[Refrain]
            C       G   D 
You make me glo-o-o-o-o-ow, but I cover up 
Em           C        G   D 
Won't let it sho-o-o-o-o-ow, so I’m 
C                   B7 
Putting my defenses up 
       Em                    D 
'Cause I don't wanna fall in love 
     C             B7 
If I ever did that 
                           Em      C   G 
I think I'd have a heart atta-a-a-a-a-ack 
       D                   Em      C   G 
I think I'd have a heart atta-a-a-a-a-ack 
       D                   Em 
I think I'd have a heart attack
[Pont]
               C 
The feelings are lost in my lungs 
                     G 
They're burning, I'd rather be numb 
            D                   Em 
And there's no one else to blame 
                     C 
So scared I'd take off in a run 
               G 
I'm flying too close to the sun 
                   B7 
And I burst into flames
[Refrain]
            C        G   D 
You make me glo-o-o-o-o-ow, but I cover up 
Em           C        G   D 
Won't let it sho-o-o-o-o-ow, so I'm 
C                   B7 
Putting my defenses up 
       Em                    D 
'Cause I don't wanna fall in love 
     C             B7 
If I ever did that 
                           Em      C   G 
I think I'd have a heart atta-a-a-a-A-ack 
       D                   Em      C   G 
I think I'd have a heart atta-a-a-a-a-ack 
       D                   Em      C   G 
I think I'd have a heart atta-a-a-a-a-ack 
       D                   Em      C   G 
I think I'd have a heart atta-a-a-a-a-ack 
       D                      Em 
I think I'd have a heart attack
