You're my thing
D        E            A     Bm
Give you something to hide
D            E          A     Bm
Working it's way to the side
           D          E           A
Taking me, taking me, taking me

Taking it down on you

Watch me fall over you
            D           E         A      Bm
Through the eyes in the bottom of shoes
                  D      E           A
Making me feel so small, making me

            F#m
And I've got bigger things to do

You're my thing
D               E             A      Bm
Starts with the way that she walked
          D          E         A      Bm
She never listens to me when I talk
           D      E
Tapping me on the shoulder,
          A        Bm
Trying to create a monster,
        D          E
Just so I can hold it.

I can't deny the feeling, fizzin' inside my head
All my senses wash away these blues that I've been fed
