Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][C][Em][D]

[Verse 1]
[G]Get a load of me, get a load of you[D]
Walking down the street,
and I hardly [Em]know you
It's [C]just like we were meant to be
[G]Holding hands with you
when we're out at [D]night
Got a girlfriend, you say it isn't [Em]right
And [C]I've got someone waiting too
[C]What if this is just the beginning?
We're [D]already wet,

[Chorus 1]
and we're gonna go swimming
[Em]Why can'[C]t I brea[G]the
whenever I [D]think about you?
[Em]Why can'[C]t I spea[G]k
whenever I [D]talk about you?
[C]It's inevitable, it's a fact
that we're [D]gonna get down to it
So tell me
[Em]Why can'[C]t I brea[G]the
whenever I [D]think about you?

[Interlude 1]
[G](Whenever I think about you)
[C](Whenever I think about you)
[Em](Whenever I think about you)
[C](Whenever I think about you)

[Verse 2]
[G]Isn't this the best part of breaking up?[D]
Finding someone else
you can't get [Em]enough of
Some[C]one who wants to be with you too
[G]It's an itch we know we are gonna scr[D]atch
Gonna take a while for this egg to [Em]hatch
But [C]wouldn't it be beautiful?
[C]Here we go, we're at the beginning
We [D]haven't fucked yet,
but my head's spinning

[Chorus 2]
[Em]Why can'[C]t I brea[G]the
whenever I [D]think about you?
[Em]Why can'[C]t I spea[G]k
whenever I [D]talk about you?
[C]It's inevitable, it's a fact
that we're [D]gonna get down to it
So tell me
[Em]Why can'[C]t I brea[G]the
whenever I [D]think about you?

[Bridge 1]
[Em]High enough for [G]you to make me [C]wonder
Where it's going
[Em]High enough for [G]you to pull me [C]under
Something's growing
[C]Out of this that we can con[D]trol
Baby, I am [C]dyin'

[Chorus 3]
[Em]Why can'[C]t I brea[G]the
whenever I [D]think about you?
[Em]Why can'[C]t I spea[G]k
whenever I [D]talk about you?

[Chorus 4]
[D]Why[Em] can'[C]t I brea[G]the
whenever I [D]think about you?
[Em]Why can'[C]t I spea[G]k
whenever I [D]talk about you?
[C]It's inevitable, it's a fact
that we're [D]gonna get down to it
So tell me
[Em]Why can'[C]t I brea[G]the
whenever I [D]think about you?

[Outro 1]
[G](Whenever I think about you)
[C](Whenever I think about you)
[Em](Whenever I think about you)
[C](Whenever I think about you)
[G]
