"I'VE ALWAYS HAD A THING FOR GIRLS LIKE YOU"

V5.5

[Verse 1] [F] I used to call it “maybe” [Duet] Maybe, maybe A pull I couldn’t name [Duet] You never had to name it Every time you walked in [Duet] I felt it hit the room My chest would act the same [Duet] Mine, too [F] I looked the other way [Duet] But I kept on looking back Still staring at your smile [Duet] Couldn’t help it Like my heart knew first [Duet] Mine knew first And kept it there awhile [Duet] Kept it there awhile [Pre-Chorus] [F] I thought it was just nerves [Duet] You said it like a joke Just a passing phase [Duet] I said I was fine But why’d you stay in my head [Duet] Why’d you stay in mine? For days and days? [Duet] Days and days [F] Why’d your laugh hit different? [Duet] Why’d yours do the same? Why’d your touch feel new? [Duet] Like we’d both been waiting Why’d I keep on asking [Duet] Why’d we keep on asking What’s wrong with you? [Duet] What’s wrong with me? [Chorus] [F] I’ve always had a thing for girls like you (For girls like you) [Duet] Girls like me (Like me) I didn’t know how true (How true) [Duet] Didn’t know it either (Neither of us did) [F] Now it’s clear in the dark [Duet] Clear to me now What my heart would do [Duet] What yours would do I’ve always had a thing [Duet] Always had a thing For girls like you [Duet] For girls like you [Verse 2] [F] That night out, the bass was rolling [Duet] You leaned in when it dropped Your hand found mine by chance [Duet] I let it stay there We talked too close, then closer [Duet] Close enough to count the breaths Like we both knew the dance [Duet] Like neither one wanted to stop [F] Then the sleepover morning [Duet] Cups on the counter You laughed with tangled hair [Duet] Mine in a knot, too And something in me broke open [Duet] Something in me answered Like, oh, you’ve been there [Duet] Yeah, I’ve been there [Pre-Chorus] [F] It wasn’t just a moment [Duet] No, it kept on going It was all along [Duet] Under every small talk A quiet little wanting [Duet] A quiet little wanting That grew up strong [Duet] Grew up strong [F] I tried to call it anything [Duet] Tried to call it “nothing” But what it was to see [Duet] What it was to feel You were never just a maybe [Duet] Never just a maybe You were always for me [Duet] Always for me [Chorus] [F] I’ve always had a thing for girls like you (For girls like you) [Duet] Girls like me (Like me) I didn’t know how true (How true) [Duet] Now we know it’s true (Yeah, it’s true) [F] Now it’s clear in the dark [Duet] Clear in the dark What my heart would do [Duet] What your heart would do I’ve always had a thing [Duet] Always had a thing For girls like you [Duet] For girls like you [Bridge] [F] And if I’m honest [Duet] Be honest with me I was scared to know [Duet] I was scared, too What if wanting you [Duet] What if wanting this Means changing my whole life? [Duet] Means changing both our lives? [F] But your name in my mouth [Duet] And mine in yours Feels like coming home [Duet] Feels like coming home And I don’t want to hide it [Duet] I don’t want to hide it I don’t want to fight [Duet] I don’t want to fight [Tempo Shift] [F] Oh, oh [Duet] Oh, oh Now I know [Duet] Now we know Oh, oh [Duet] Oh, oh I’m letting go [Duet] We’re letting go [Final Chorus] [F] I’ve always had a thing for girls like you (For girls like you) [Duet] Girls like me (And girls like you) I didn’t know how true (How true) [Duet] Now it’s singing through (Through and through) [F] Now I’m saying it loud [Duet] Say it with me now Like it’s born brand new [Duet] Like it’s born brand new I’ve always had a thing [Duet] Always had a thing For girls like you [Duet] For girls like you [F] I’ve always had a thing for girls like you (For girls like you) [Duet] And you had one too (And I had one too) And now I know what to do (What to do) [Duet] Now I know what to do (What to do) [F] No more hiding my heart [Duet] No more hiding ours No more breaking through [Duet] We already broke through I’ve always had a thing [Duet] Always had a thing For girls like you [Duet] For girls like you
