[Verse 1]
B A E
Never been the type to leave much room for anyone to speak
B A E
Always been about what I want, listen to me while I preach
B A E
Never been the kind to make much space for emotions in a fight
B A E
Anything I didn't wanna hear, I just preached 'til I was right
[Pre-Chorus]
G#m
But you, you got me on the line
B
Told me that you think it's time
F#m
Make a change or this is gonna stall
E
Shape up or you'll drop me like a call
[Chorus]
B
Now I wanna write a love song
A E
Even though you never ever ask me for one
B
Write you a letter, send sweet poems
A E
Ask for forgiveness, tell you I was wrong
G#m F#m
Sit myself down, reign my pride in
A E
And start to focus, change who I've been
B
Give me a second, let me u-turn
A E
Write you the love song you've earned
[Verse 2]
B A E
I been at this so long I can barely stand to think it now
B A E
Every second of my life was was packed until I broke them down
B A E
I've been selfish so long I don't know why you would ever stay
B
Every minute you've been here,
A E
I've been pushing you and your love away
[Pre-Chorus]
G#m
But you, you got me on the line
B
Told me that you think it's time
F#m
Make a change or this is gonna stall
E
Shape up or you'll drop me like a call
[Chorus]
B
Now I wanna write a love song
A E
Even though you never ever ask me for one
B
Write you a letter, send sweet poems
A E
Ask for forgiveness, tell you I was wrong
G#m F#m
Sit myself down, reign my pride in
A E
And start to focus, change who I've been
B
Give me a second, let me u-turn
A E
Write you the love song you've earned
[Bridge]
B
Every time I think I hurt you
F#m
All I have to do is think through
G#m
What I want, list your virtues
A
Apologize, I don't deserve you
B
Any time I know I hurt you
F#m
All I have to do is run through
G#m
What I need, list your virtues
E
Apologize, I don't deserve you
[Chorus]
B
Now I wanna write a love song
A E
Even though you never ever ask me for one
B
Write you a letter, send sweet poems
A E
Ask for forgiveness, tell you I was wrong
G#m F#m
Sit myself down, reign my pride in
A E
And start to focus, change who I've been
B
Give me a second, let me u-turn
A E
Write you the love song you've earned

Give me a second, let me u-turn
