F#m G#m E, F#m G#m E E
F#m G#m E
In this world, we’re all in search for a counterpart
F#m G#m
But how can I decide what that is if I don’t even know what I want?

[Verse 1]
(Muted)E G#m E
Mother told me when you grow up you will understand
E G#m B E
Love’s true meaning, but here I am and I can’t pretend
G#m E
That I’ve seen even a glimpse of that famed allure
G#m B E
In my dreams, there’s someone out there with a cure
[Chorus]
F#m G#m E F#m
Can I convince myself that you’re out there somewhere
G#m E
When my heart knows better?
F#m G#m
Taking my chances in a reckless pursuit of love
E
I think I’ve found it, then I realize it’s not enough
F#m G#m
Another failure tells me I should have known
E F#m G#m E
Not to hold faith in my feelings, they’re always misleading me
F#m G#m E, F#m G#m E
F#m G#m E
So tell me, where will I go?
[Verse 2]
E E
As amorous sparks pull me in
G#m
The thrill of the chase clouds my mind again
E
My caution has all been swept up by the wind
E
And I know I don’t stand a chance
E
Cause when the fire dies
G#m
Affection suffers its cold demise It happens every time
B
I’m stricken with feelings I can’t keep alive
E G#m
Can anybody here help me bury my doubt?
B E
What if I find you and you don’t even want me?
[Chorus]
F#m G#m E F#m
Can I convince myself that you’re out there somewhere
G#m E
When my heart knows better?
F#m G#m
Taking my chances in a reckless pursuit of love
E
I think I’ve found it, then I realize it’s not enough
F#m G#m
Another failure tells me I should have known
E F#m G#m E
Not to hold faith in my feelings, they’re always misleading me
