[Verse 1]
It's been [F]a
[C]couple years s- since I been on my own
I get the feeling I don't [F]wanna

Wasn't ready to move on [C]yet, [F]no
To forget and to break free, let go
[C]All of a sudden I met you
Thought I [F]was simply [C]a one night [F]stand,
[C]maybe [F]two
Now you're turning up
everywhere I'm at
Been so patient,

[Verse 2]
wonder why I'm holding back
[G]On opening up my heart
Opening up [F]my heart
[Dm][F]

[Verse 3]
My Mama said some people come into
your life for a [C]reason
Wouldn't believe her, I believe it [G]now
Didn't see you, wasn't [F]looking [G]for ya
[Am]Didn't see l[C]ove,
I wasn't looking for love

[Verse 4]
[C]
[F]We'[C]re feeling, walking a thin lin[F]e,
highwire, tightrope

I'm under pressure, ooh p- p- p- pressure
But [C]you keep on pursuing [Dm]and
[F]I don't know what I'm [C]doing now
I keep on fucking it up and
[F]I can't figure out
How well I really want see
fun [Am]in m[F]y face
I want your love,
won't you have a little faith

And [G]I would open up my heart

[Interlude 1]
I'll open up my heart
[F][Dm][D][F]

My Mama said some people [F]come into
your [Dm]life for [F]a r[C]eason

Didn't see [C]love, I wasn't looking for it
[F]My Mama said some people come
into your life for a [C]reason
Wouldn't believe her, I believe it now
[G]Didn't see you,
