F  C  G  Am

[Verse 1]
       F                    C
I hate myself just a little less
         G                   Am
When I'm next to your heart, next to your body
F           C            G
Don't wanna deal with me alone
        F                     C
Toss my phone, snap me out of it
         G                   Am
Tell me why it's so hard, I don't wanna fall in
F          C             G
I know our timing really blows


[Pre-Chorus]
        F                C
Hope my brain's fighting the reaction
        G                     Am
Million reasons why it won't happen
       F                  C              G
Try to numb myself with distractions, no


[Chorus]
                                F            C
Fuck, I think about you when I close my eyes
                               G         Am
Think my heart is kicking into overdrive
                                   F           C   G
Should've stayed away, but I can't drop the line
                                  F           C
Fuck, you're the reminder that my heart works fine
                               G            Am
Haven't felt this feeling in a long damn time
                                     F          C   G
Should've been more careful, have I lost my mind?


[Post-Chorus]
                                  F             C    G   Am
Fuck, you're the reminder that my heart works fine, yeah
                                    F            C   G
I think you're the reminder that my heart works fine


[Verse 2]
              F                  C
In a perfect world, I'd be right there
          G                   Am               F
Sleeping next to your heart, next to your body
C                         G
But it's just never like that
           F               C
I'm such a pessimist going mad
         G                   Am                        F
Wishing I could freeze time and stop you from falling
C                          G
Though the timing really blows


[Pre-Chorus]
        F                C
Hope my brain's fighting the reaction
        G                     Am
Million reasons why it won't happen
       F                  C              G
Try to numb myself with distractions, no


[Chorus]
                               F            C
Fuck, I think about you when I close my eyes
                               G         Am
Think my heart is kicking into overdrive
                                   F           C   G
Should've stayed away, but I can't drop the line
                                  F           C
Fuck, you're the reminder that my heart works fine
                               G            Am
Haven't felt this feeling in a long damn time
                                     F          C   G
Should've been more careful, have I lost my mind?


[Post-Chorus]
                                  F             C    G   Am
Fuck, you're the reminder that my heart works fine, yeah
                                    F            C   G
I think you're the reminder that my heart works fine
                                    F            C   G
I think you're the reminder that my heart works fine
