[Intro]
C  Am  Dm  G

[Verse 1]
                           C
I think it sucks that you're perfect
                                  Am
'Cause you're not perfect for me
                                      Dm
And though you kill me with kindness
                        G
It ain't the kind that I need
                               C
I know we look good on paper
                        Am
Until you give us a read
                                        Dm
'Cause when we pull back the curtains
                             G
There ain't a whole lot to see

[Chorus]
                           C
I wanna love you but I don't
                          Am
I wanna need you but I won't
                                       Dm
I begged my heart to start to race when I'm kissing you
                                       G
I say I'm dreaming 'bout your face, but it isn't you

[Verse 2]
                           C
And I'm not trying to change you
                         Am
But it's just not in the stars
                               Dm
I know there's somebody out there
                             G
To love you just as you are
                       C
When you finally find that someone who fits you right
                Am
You'rе gonna see I couldn't be him
                                 
No matter how hard I try
   Dm               
I know I wanna love you but I-
G
I wanna lovе you but I-

[Chorus]
                           C
I wanna love you but I don't
                                      Am
I wanna need you but I won't
                                  Dm
I begged my heart to start to race when I'm kissing you
                                    G
I say I'm dreaming 'bout your face, but it isn't you
                          C
I wanna love you but I don't
                            Am
You gotta let me let you go
                                      Dm
'Cause I can't look you in the eye for another day
                             G
Won't stay forever, so goodbye is the only way
                            C
I wanna love you but I don't

[Refrain]
I wanna love you
             Am
I wanna, I wanna
I wanna love you
                             Dm
I wanna love you but I don't 
I wanna, I wanna
I wanna love you
               G
I wanna, I wanna
I wanna love you
I wanna, I wanna

[Chorus]
                             C
I wanna love you but I don't
                              Am
I wanna need you but I won't
                               Dm
I beg my heart to start to race when I'm kissing you
                                    G
I say I'm dreaming 'bout your face, but it isn't you
                               C
I wanna love you but I don't
                               Am
You gotta let me let you go
                                  Dm
'Cause I can't look you in the eye for another day
                               G
Won't stay forever, so goodbye is the only way
                               C
I wanna love you but I don't

[Refrain]
I wanna love you
              Am
I wanna, I wanna
I wanna love you
                             Dm
I wanna love you but I don't 
I wanna, I wanna
I wanna love you
               G
I wanna, I wanna
I wanna love you
I wanna, I wanna
