Passenger - The Wrong Direction: chords

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

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

So what's the point in getting your hopes up
When all you're ever getting is choked up
When your coked up
And can't remember the reason why you broke up
You call her in the morning when you're coming down and falling
Like an old man on the side of the road
Cause when you're apart you don't want to mingle
When you're together you want to be single
Ever the chase to taste the kiss of bliss
That made your heart tingle
How much greener the grass is
With those rose tinted glasses
But the butterflies they flutter by and leave us on our asses

Chorus:
Cause I'd love to feel love but I can't stand the rejection
I hide behind my jokes as a form of protection
I thought I was close but under further inspection
It seems I've been running in the wrong direction
There's fish in the sea for me to make a selection
I'd jump in if it wasn't for my ear infection
Cause all I want to do is try to make a connection
It seems I've been running in the wrong direction - x2

    C                               Dm              A# F
It seems I've been running, in the wrong direction
    C                               Dm              A# F
It seems I've been running, in the wrong direction
    C                               Dm              A# F
It seems I've been running, in the wrong direction
    C                               Dm
It seems I've been running, in the wrong direction
