[Intro 1]
[F][C][G][C][F][C][G][C]

[Verse 1]
[F]She's
standing [G]in the [C]checkout line
[G]Jus[C]t one[F] cart ahead [Dm]of mine[G][C]
[F]Surely [G]she's [C]got [Dm]a man[G]
But [C]I don't see [Bb]a red light
on her left hand
[F]She's scanning the grocer[C]ies
[G]And[C] I'm [F]hoping she'll [C]notice me[G]
[C]As the[F] milk an [G]d eggs go by
She [C]catches me [Bb]stari[Gm]ng
[Bb]And she starts to smile
[C]Oh, I get so [G]tongue -tied
It feels like [Am]I'm twis[C]ted
Up on [F]the inside
It's all in slow [C]motion
I'm locked up [G]and frozen
Watching the [Am]mo me[C]nt passing m[F]e by
The kick on the spot[Am]light,
[C]here [Am]comes[C] the stage[G] fright
I wanna say [F]something,
[C]but [Dm]I'm so [F]tongue [C]-tied[G][C][F][C][G]
[F]I wish t[C]hat I could s[G]ee[C]
[F]The name that she [C]signs [G]on her receipt
[C]I c[G]ould act like we m[C]et b[G]efore
And [C]then maybe [Bb]I could
get my foot in the door
[G]But [Gm]oh, [C]I get so tongu[G]e -tied
Feels like [Am]I'm twisted [C]up on [F]the inside
It's all in slow [C]motion
I'm locked up and [G]frozen
Watching the [Am]moment
[C]Passing [F]me by, kick on the [Am]spotlight,
here comes the [G]stage fright
I wanna say [F]something,
[C]but I'm so [G]tongue [F]-ti[C]ed
[Am]What would[G] I say[C]?
Maybe you're [G]beauti[F]ful
What would I [Am]say?
[C]Do you[G] believe in [C]lov[F]e at first sight?
[G]I s[C]ay?
[G]Maybe just [F]hello, hello
I know [C]what [G]you're [Dm]doin' tonig[F]ht
[Am]What [G]you're doi[C]n' ton[F]ight, yea[C]h[G]
But [C]oh, I get [G]so tongue -tied
Feels like I'm [Am]twisted up [G]on [F]the inside
It's all in slow [C]motion
I'm [G]locked up and frozen
Watchin' the [Am]mornin' as [G]it passes [F]by
[G]Oh, I don't [C]know why
I get so [G]tongue -tied
Feels like I'm [Am]twisted u[C]p on t[F]he inside
I'm falling to [C]pieces,
I'm [G]standing here speechless
Watching the mo[Am]ment pass me [F]by
A kick on [Am]the spotlight,
here comes the [G]stage fright
I wanna say [F]something,
[C]but I'm so [G]tongue [F]-ti[G]ed[F][Am][G]
[C]Gir[F]l, I w[G]ant t[C]o say[G] someth[F]ing
[C]But [G]I'm[C] so tongue -ti[F]ed[C]
