Capo: 4th fret
[Verse 1]
G D
I come runnin’ to you like a moth into a flame
Em C
You tell me, “Take it easy,” but it’s easier to say
G D
Wish I didn’t need so much of you
Em C
I hate to say, but I do
G D
We’re sleepin’ on our problems like we’ll solve them in our dreams
Em C
We wake up early morning and they’re still under the sheets
G D
I’m lost in my head, I’m spinnin’ again
Em C
Tryna find what to say to you
[Pre-Chorus]
C
Been up all night
Em
All night runnin’ all my lines
G D
But it’s only the truth
C
Been up all night
Em
Not sure how to say this right
G N.C.
Got so much to lose
[Chorus]
C
Never been so defenceless (Oh)
Em G
Never been so defenceless (Ooh)
D C
You just keep on buildin’ up your fences (Oh)
Em G D
But I’ve never been so defenceless (Ooh)
[Post-Chorus]
C Em
(Ooh, ooh, ooh)
G
(Ooh, ooh, ooh)
D C
You just keep on buildin’ up your fences (Oh)
Em G D
But I’ve never been so defenceless (Ooh)
[Verse 2]
G D
No, you don’t have to keep on being strong for me and you
Em C
Acting like you feel no pain, you know I know you do
G D
And I can’t get inside when you’re lost in your pride
G C
But you don’t have a thing to prove
[Pre-Chorus]
C
Been up all night
Em
All night runnin’ all my lines
G D
But it’s only the truth
C
Been up all night
Em
Not sure how to say this right
G N.C.
Got so much to lose
[Chorus]
C
Never been so defenceless (Oh)
Em G
Never been so defenceless (Ooh)
D C
You just keep on buildin’ up your fences (Oh)
Em G D
But I’ve never been so defenceless (Ooh)

C Em
(Ooh, ooh, ooh)
G
(Ooh, ooh, ooh)
D C
You just keep on buildin’ up your fences (Oh)
Em G D
But I’ve never been so defenceless (Ooh)
[Bridge]
C Em
I hope that I’m not asking too much
G D
Just wanna be loved by you (Don’t you be so defensive)
C Em
And I’m too tired to be tough
G D
Just wanna be loved by you
[Chorus]
C
Never been so defenceless
Em G
Never been so defenceless
D C
You just keep on buildin’ up your fences
Em G D
But I’ve never been so defenceless
[Post-Chorus]
