Verse 1:           
           
E 
I would say I like you if I 
A 
thought that you would care 
E 
'cause this obsessive flirting 
A               B 
isn't going anywhere 
E 
I want to try to show you that I 
A 
I really can be cool 
E 
but when my mouth starts flapping 
A                       B 
I start sounding like a fool 
 
'cause I want 
 
Chorus: 
 
 
E        A 
Love and company 
B                   B7 
tenderness and your sympathy 
E             A                  Bsus B 
These are the things I'm longing for 
    E          A 
Not sex, not a one night stand 
     Bsus                           B 
just walking by the water while I'm holding your hand 
E                 A                          B 
I've been looking around for somebody that's true 
                   E 
Now I'm looking at you 
 
 
Verse 2: 
 
  E 
I want to do some things and spend some 
A 
time with someone 
    E 
Not sex or drugs or alcohol 
     A                  B 
just good old fashioned fun! 
    E 
And you, you seem so perfect in well, 
A 
almost every way 
     E 
so I hope you can decipher 
         A         B 
what I'm trying to say 
 
I want 
 
{Chorus} 
 
 
 
Bridge: 
 
 
E 
Now that I have told you this, I'm 
A 
feeling deathly sick 
       E 
'cause maybe being so honest 
    A                B 
was indeed, not very slick 
      E 
But I can't help this attraction, 'cause I, 
A 
I know that you're so fine 
      E 
And I swear I'll never rest 
          A              B 
until the day I make you mi-i-ine 
 
'cause I want: 
 
 {chorus}

A little disclaimer:  Some of the chords might not be quite right.  For  
instance, the Bsus could  probably be neglected.  There may be a few subtle  
chord changes in the  recorded version, but this is the general outline.   
Enjoy.
