D
Well, I guess the third timeʼs not a charm
A
Nursing a three times broken heart
Bm7 G
And down the rabbit hole again
D
I put myself in another world
A
Where I can be any other girl
Bm7 G
ʼCause I donʼt really wanna face it
Pre-Chorus: D
ʼCause, if it isnʼt real, you can pretend all you want
A
Itʼs all youʼll ever need
Bm7 A
«Thatʼs not healthy», they said, «To live in your head»
G
But it hurts a lot less to me
Chorus:D
I fall in love with boys I see on a TV screen
A
The ones in books who are as perfect as they can be
Bm7
I spend all of my time imagining
G
What it would be like if they existed
D
My parents tell me I should look for one in real life
A
But I get let down by both the bad boys and the nice guys
Bm7
Iʼm tired of giving more than I receive
G D
So Iʼll just stick to the boys who donʼt know me
D
Oh, I hid his number, I almost called
A
Like, maybe heʼs hurting after all
Bm7
I canʼt afford to be that naive
G
Iʼll just keep wishing it was me in that ending scene
D
Where theyʼre meeting up halfway and theyʼre kissing in the rain
A
Itʼs a little bit cliche but I love it anyway
Bm7
ʼCause itʼs better than when youʼre walking home
G
And the rain starts pouring but youʼre all alone
Chorus:D
I fall in love with boys I see on a TV screen
A
The ones in books who are as perfect as they can be
Bm7
I spend all of my time imagining
G
What it would be like if they existed
D
My parents tell me I should look for one in real life
A
But I get let down by both the bad boys and the nice guys
Bm7
Iʼm tired of giving more than I receive
G D
So Iʼll just stick to the boys who donʼt know me
Bridge: A
Ohh-oh, (ohh-oh)
Bm7
Iʼd rather keep on dreaming of someone Iʼll never meet
(Ohh-oh)
G D
Than give love to another one who wonʼt choose me
A
Ohh-oh, (ohh-oh)
Bm7
Iʼd rather keep on dreaming of someone Iʼll never meet
(Ohh-oh)
G
Than give love to another one who wonʼt choose me
