[Verse 1]
              C
You're coming over
          G      D
I started takin' breaths
'cause I was too anxious
            C
Too much to take in,
              G
years in the making, no
D
 Mm
       C
No melatonin
        G
No meditation
    D
Can ease my anticipation
             C
No drink I'm making's
             G
helping the waiting, no
D
 Ooh

[Pre-Chorus]
C             G
 It's you, boy
D
 I'm cool like an icicle
           C
 till I see you, boy
G               D
Think I'm gonna die

[Chorus]
             C         G
But now your hands are touching
                D
my waist in the back of the car
You just couldn't wait
           C         G
And now my hands are moving in
            D
ways like I need you right now
I just couldn't wait
           C
And my m-m-minds
     G                    D
Made so much noise for so long
and it's gone
                             C
'Cause when you kiss me it's quiet
G        D
Oh, it's quiet
C
Quiet
G        D
Oh, it's quiet

            C
Did you get taller?
                G
Your hair is longer
D
Couple tattoos since I saw you
           C
Looking at your hands
             G
Thinking of my plans for 'em
D
 Ooh
C
Ooh, but what if I panic?
     G
What if I'm damaged?
D
 What if I'm just not who you imagined?
C
I just can't focus
    G
And you're gorgeous
D
 And I'm hopeless
God damn it

ways like I need you right now
I just couldn't wait
