Verse 1:
D/F#           G5                 D5
  When you're around I don't know what to do
D/F#       G5               D5
  I do not think that I can wait
D/F#    G5          D5
  To go over and to talk to you
D/F#       G5                 D5
  I do not know what I should say


Refrain:
     D/F#        G5
So I walk out in silence
       A5
That's when I start to realize
         D/F#        G5
What you bring to my life
D5                        A5
Damn this guy can make me cry


Chorus:
G5     D5    A5 B5
  It's so conta-gious
  G5     D5     A5        B5
I cannot get it out of my mind
G5     D5    A5 B5
  It's so outra-geous
    G5      D5      F#5
You make me feel so high 
all the time


(Repeat Intro)


Verse 2:
D/F#       G5                 D5
  They all say that you're no good for me
D/F#          G5             D5
  But I'm too close to turn around
D/F#        G5                   D5
  I'll show them they don't know anything
D/F#           G5              D5
  I think I've got you figured out


Refrain:
     D/F#        G5
So I walk out in silence
       A5
That's when I start to realize
         D/F#        G5
What you bring to my life
D5                         A5
Damn this guy can make me smile

Bridge:
G5              D5
I will give you everything
G5               D5
I will treat you right
G5          D5
If you just give me a chance
F#5
  I can prove I'm right


(Repeat Chorus twice)
