Tom: C
C
Maybe I shouldn't try to be perfect
G
I confess, I'm obsessed with the surface
Dm F
In the end, if I fall or if I get it all
I just hope that it's worth it
C G
Last year I fell flat on my face
Dm
And last month I knew somethin' should change
F
Last week I started over again
Ask me and I'll tell you how I've been
Am
Mhm, don't get me started
[Chorus]
G Dm
You've got me nervous to speak
F Am
So I just won't say anything at all
G Dm
I've got an urge to release
F Am
And you keep tellin' me to hold on
G Dm
You've got me nervous to move
F Am
So I just won't give anything to you
G Dm F
You got me turnin' all around to be who you need me to
[Verse 2]
Am G
Should I be quiet?
Dm
Uh, come on, be silent
F
Uh, you know I'm tryin'
Am
So don't say nothin'
G
Uh, tell me you trust me and
Dm
Kiss me and hug me, yeah
F
Well, I would do anything for ya
Am
You just gotta love me and
G
I got an itch in my throat
Dm
I don't know which way to go
F
I keep on switchin', I know
Am
I need a different approach
G
It's all because I wanna
Dm F Am
Show you that I'm so capable
[Chorus]
G Dm
You've got me nervous to speak
F Am
So I just won't say anything at all
G Dm
I've got an urge to release
F Am
And you keep tellin' me to hold on
G Dm
You've got me nervous to move
F Am
So I just won't give anything to you
G Dm F
You got me turnin' all around to be who you need me to
[Refrain]
Am C
Hush, baby, don't you say another word
Dm F
Hush, baby, don't you say another word, be quiet
Am C
Hush, baby, don't you say another word
Dm F Am
Hush, baby, when you do, I just get hurt
[Verse 3]
G Dm
Come on, baby, don't you hurt me anymore
C Am
I'm not the same way that I was before
G Dm
I got goosebumps all over me
C Am
When you're around, hard for me to breathe
G Dm
Come on, baby, don't you do that anymore
C Am
It's not like the days, at night, I feel so short
G Dm
My nerves, they give me a sign
C
Tell me I'm not fine, mhm
[Chorus]
G Dm
You've got me nervous to speak
F Am
So I just won't say anything at all
G Dm
I've got an urge to release
F Am
And you keep tellin' me to hold on
G Dm
You've got me nervous to move
F Am
So I just won't give anything to you
G Dm F
You got me turnin' all around to be who you need me to
[Refrain]
Am C
Hush, baby, don't you say another word
Dm F
Hush, baby, don't you say another word, be quiet
Am C
Hush, baby, don't you say another word
Dm F Am
Hush, baby, when you do, I just get hurt
