The Wrong Direction

[Verse 1]
F                                 
When I was a kid the things I did 
            C
were hidden under the grid
G                                 
Young and naive, I never believed 
                Am
that love could be so well hid
F                                 
With regret I'm willing to bet 
          C
they say the older you get
G                                 
It gets harder to forgive and 
   Am
harder to forget
F                             
It gets under your shirt like a 
  C
dagger at work
G                                 
The first cut is the deepest but 
   Am
the rest still flippin' hurt
    F                           
You build your heart of plastic, 
        C
you're cynical and sarcastic
        G
And you end up in the corner on your
 own


[Chorus]
F                                 
'Cos I'd love to feel love, but I 
      C
can't stand the rejection
  G                         Am
I hide behind my jokes as a form of 
protection
  F                             
I thought I was close, but under 
 C
further inspection
   G                               
It seems I've been running, in the 
Am
wrong direction, oh no

           F                    
What's the point in getting your 
                 C
hopes up, when all you're ever 
getting is choked up?
            G                  
When you're coked up, and can't 
              Am
remember the reason why you broke up
       F                           
You'll call her in the morning when
        C
 you're coming down and falling
        G
Like an old man on the side of the 
road
                   F
Cause when you're apart, you don't 
wanna mingle
            C
When you're together you wanna be 
single
         G                         
Ever the chase to taste the kiss of
            Am
 bliss that made your heart tingle
         F
How much greener the grass is
              C
Through those rose tinted glasses
         G
But the butterflies they flutter by 
and leave us on our arses


[Chorus]
F                             
'Cos I want to feel love, but I 
          C
can't stand the rejection
  G                         Am
I hide behind my jokes as a form of 
protection
  F                              C
I thought Ii was close, but under 
further inspection
   G                               
It seems I've been running, in the 
Am
wrong direction
        F                         
There's fish in the sea for me to 
C
make a selection
    G                            
I'd jump in, if it wasn't for my ear
Am
 infection
      F                          
Cause all I really want is try to 
  C
make a connection
       G                         
But it seems I've been running in 
     Am
the wrong direction, oh no

            F                      
oh oh, I'd love to feel love, but I
        C
 can't stand the rejection
  G                         Am
I hide behind my jokes as a form of 
protection
  F

I'd love to feel love, but I can't

  G                         Am
I hide behind my jokes as a form of 
protection
       F                           
and I thought I was close, but 
   C
under further inspection
   G                               
It seems I've been running, in the

wrong direction, oh no



   G                               
It seems I've been running, in the

wrong direction
   G                               
It seems I've been running, in the

wrong direction

(one strum)
   G                               
It seems I've been running, in the
