All American Rejects - Affection

no – one else did it so – – i did!

F Am Dm
i always wonder where you are
F Am Dm
i’m right beside you , you’re so far away
A# A#m
one moment you’re not facing me , one moment you’re not chasing me
F Am Dm
i don’t believe in good , goodbyes
F Am Dm
’cause even when the roses die there’s still some thorns left in your side
F Am Dm
it’s like a funeral for the bride

F Am
about affection
A# F Am A#

[ same chords ]
somewhere alone is when i died
on the banks of some canal , yeah the river bed of tears i tried to hide
even fools will believe in lies
and if every word you ever said were true
you’d be my god and i’d just pray to you

[ chorus ]
for affection
all i want right now is affection
i don’t mean to make a confession
girl it’s not what you do , what you don’t do makes a man come on blue
no affection
i need affection

( covered in gas and you couldn’t catch fire )

( i know there’s someone else burning your eyes )
A# A#m
you don’t think i see you but i see right through you , baby
