[«I Wanna Be With You Tonight»]
[Intro — A with a few quick changes to D]
[Verse]
A D A D A
I just know your name but still just the same
D E
I see you in my dreams at night, I see you in my food when I eat
A D A D A
I see your pretty mug, I think that I’m in love
D E
If you kissed me I would blow up, if I kissed you would you throw up?
D E A E D E
I try to say «Don’t walk away from me in my condition»
[Verse]
I sit and look at you and think of what to do
After school when you go home and leave me standing all alone here
And I try to speak, my mouth’s dry, I’m weak
I’m sure you’ve got a boyfriend and he’s probably a lawyer or something
I try to say «Don’t walk away from me in my condition» cause
[Chorus]
D A E
I wanna be with you tonight
D A E
I wanna be with you tonight
D A E D A E
I wanna be with you tonight
[Bridge]
F# D A E
I can’t look to the other side of the room and you’re ignoring me
F# D A
You must think that I’m gay because I can’t find a way to ask you out
E
But I’m trying, I’m trying, I’m trying, I’m trying
[Key change]
[Verse]
B E B E B
I sit and look at you and think of what to do

After school when you go home and leave me standing all alone here
B E B E B
And I try to speak, my mouth’s dry, I’m weak

I’m sure you’ve got a boyfriend and he’s probably a lawyer or something
E F# B F# E F#
I try to say «Don’t walk away from me in my condition» cause
