Un, deux, trois
[A]I love that new [A]dress you bought, yeah you sure look nice [A]
Heard you liked that new [A]restaurant, you know I’ve been there [D]twice


And the way that you switch up your hair, all of the [C#m]moments we’ve shared
Strolling the streets [C]back in Rome, oh, how I wish [Bm]I was there
It [D]ain’t fair, no, it [A]ain’t [D]fair


[A]I’m in my bed [A]sitting, talking to screens [A]all day
But I [A]can’t seem to say what’s on [D]my brain, but I wonder, I [C#m]wonder
If [C]you would feel the [Bm]same, if one [D]day we’d meet face [A]to face[D]


[A]I messaged you [A]yesterday, haven’t heard back [A]yet
Did I do something [A]wrong, or is it something I [D]said
And it hurts me inside, ’cause it’s killing my [C#m]pride
To see you [C]reply to all of these other [Bm]guys
Tell me [D]why, tell me [A]why, tell me [A]why[D]


[A]I’m in my bed [A]sitting, talking to screens [A]all day
But I [A]can’t seem to say what’s on [D]my brain, but I wonder, I [C#m]wonder
If [C]you would feel the [Bm]same, if one [D]day we’d meet face [A]to face[D]
