[verse]
D        D+          G
I Wasn’t Looking For This
D        D+          G
I Wasn’t Looking For This
D                   D+     G            Gm
Thought I put it so clearly where I was coming from
D              G      A  D
But you didn’t hear me I guess
D        D+          G
I Wasn’t Looking For This
D        D+          G
I Wasn’t Looking For This
D                   D+     G            Gm
Thought I put it so clearly where I was coming from
D              G      A  D
But you didn’t hear me I guess


[chorus]
Bm          G              D
Are you too cute for me to leave?
Bm         G                 A7
I hate the way you clutch my sleeve when we’re walking.


[verse]
D        D+          G
I Wasn’t Looking For This
D        D+        G
I Wasn’t Ready For This
D              D+     G                Gm
But it’s so convenient, I don’t have to do a thing
D                    G    A  D
And I’ve always been lazy at best


[chorus]
Bm           G             D
It’s nice to have someone around
Bm        G           A7
I hate to let anybody down so I’m quiet but
D        G      A    D
I Wasn’t Looking For This



[bridge]
F#m
There’s a knock on the door
G
There’s a squeak of the door
        D                       F#m            G
And the sun shines down on your brand new dyed hair
        A7
And you smile
     G
So I smile
       G           D
And we smile for a while.



[verse]
D                   D+     G            Gm
Thought I put it so clearly where I was coming from
D              G      A  D
But you didn’t hear me I guess
D                G      A  D
But you couldn’t hear me I guess
D                G      A  D
But you wouldn’t hear me I guess
