The Wrong Direction Chords & Lyrics by Passenger
The Wrong Direction
guitar chords lyrics
Capo - Fifth Fret
Intro - F C G Am
F C
When i was a kid the things i did were hidden under the grid
G Am
Young and naive, i never believed that love could be so well hid
F C
With regret I'm willing to bet they say 'the older you get
G Am
It gets harder to forgive and harder to forget
F C
It gets under your shirt like a dagger at work
G Am
The first cut is the deepest but the rest still flippin' hurt
F C
You build your heart of plastic, you're cynical and sarcastic
G
and you end up in the corner on your own
F C
'Cos I'd love to feel love, but i can't stand the rejection
G Am
I hide behind my jokes as a form of protection
F C
I thought i was close, but under further inspection
G Am
It seems I've been running, in the wrong direction, oh no
Filler - F C G Am x2
F
What's the point in getting your hopes up, when all you're ever getting is
C
choked up?
G Am
When you're coked up, and can't remember the reason why you broke up
F C
You'll call her in the morning when you're coming down and falling
G
Like an old man on the side of the road
F
When you're apart, you don't wanna mingle
C
When you're together you wanna be single
G Am
Ever the chase to taste the kiss of bliss that made your heart tingle
F
How much greener the grass is
C
Through those rose tinted glasses
G
And the butterflies that flutter by and leave us on our arses
F C
'Cos I want to feel love, but i can't stand the rejection
G Am
I hide behind my jokes as a form of protection
F C
I thought i was close, but under further inspection
G Am
It seems I've been running, in the wrong direction
F C
There's fish in the sea for me to make a selection
G Am
I'd jump in, if it wasn't for my ear infection
F C
All I really want is just to make a connection
G Am
But it seems I've been running in the wrong direction, oh no
Filler - F C G Am x2
F C
What is love? Baby don't hurt me
Am
Don't hurt me
G
No more
F C
What is love? Baby don't hurt me
Am
Don't hurt me
G
No more
F C
What is love? Baby don't hurt me
Am
Don't hurt me
G
No more
