[Verse]
F/C C
You may be broke now and you may be bored
F/C C
Call you delinquent or leave you ignored
Dsus4 D
You'll get what you want
F/C C
Drive to distraction and crash on the way
F/C C
Watch your reaction and wait 'til you say
Dsus4 D
You'll get what you want
Dsus4 D
It hurts if you can't
[Chorus]

F/C C
Why the pretence?
Am D5
You don't agree
Em G5
I know, I know
[Verse]
F/C C
I'll do what you want if you want me enough
F/C C
I'll put down my book and start falling in love
Dsus4 D
Or isn't that done?
F/C C
How graceful your movements, how bitter your scorn
F/C C
I've been a teenager since before you were born
Dsus4 D
And I'm younger than some
Dsus4 D
I've only begun
[Chorus]

Will I get in your way
F/C C
Or open your eyes?
Dsus2/F# D5/F#
Who will give whom
G6 G5
The bigger surprise?
[Verse]
F/C C
Is that fire in your eyes or the glow of machines?
F/C C
Watch how your fingers burn over the keys
Dsus4 D
So sure what you do
Dsus4 D
I haven't a clue
[Chorus]
F/C C

The lovers you need

It hurts when they bleed

You don't agree
