CPutting my defenses up        D 
Cause I dEmon't wanna fall in love   G 
If I eCver did that, I thinDk I'd have a heart attack  Em 

CNever put my love out on thGe line
DNever said "yes" Emto the right guy
CNever had trouble getting wGhat I want
DBut when it comes to you I'm neverEm good enough

When I don't care
I can play 'em like a Ken doll
Won't wash my hair
Then make 'em bounce like a basketball

But you make me wanna act like a girl
Paint my nails and wear high heels
Yes you make me so nervous that I just can't hold your hand

You make me glow     C  G  D 
But I cover up, wonEm9;t let it show C  G  D 
So I'mC putting my defenses up       D 
Cause I doEmn't wanna fall in love   G 
If I Cever did that, I thiDnk I'd have a heart attack C  G  D 
I Emthink I'd have a heart attaCckG  D 
I Emthink I'd have a heart attackC 

Never break a sweat for the other guys
When you come around I get paralyzed
And every time I try to be myself
It comes out wrong like a cry for help

It's just not fair
Pain's more trouble than love is worth
I gasp for air
It feels so good, but you know it hurts

But you make me wanna act like a girl
Paint my nails and wear perfume
For you, make me so nervous that I just can't hold your hand

You make me glow
But I cover up, won't let it show
So I'm putting my defenses up
Cause I don't wanna fall in love
If I ever did that, I think I'd have a heart attack
I think I'd have a heart attack
I think I'd have a heart attack

Em  The feelings got lost iCn my lungs
They're burning, I&#G39;d rather be numb
And there's noD one else to blame
Em  So scared I'll takeC off and run
I'm flying too closeG to the sun
And I burst into fDlames

You make me glow
But I cover up, won't let it show
So I'm putting my defenses up
Cause I don't wanna fall in love
If I ever did that, I think I'd have a heart attack
I think I'd have a heart attack
I think I'd have a heart attack
I think I'd have a heart attack
I think I'd have a heart attack
