[Intro]
[Verse]
C        E      F          C 
  I guess I just must be a daredevil 
Bb          Am           G     F       E 
I don't feel anything until I smash it up 
      C                      E 
I'm caught on the cold, caught on the hot 
F                 C 
Not so with the warmer lot 
    Bb              Am 
And all I want is a confidant 
    G        F       E 
To help me laugh it off
[Chorus]
     Am 
And don't let me ruin me 
E 
I may need a chaperone
[Instrumental]

[Verse]
C           E 
Say I'm an airplane 
           F                   C 
And the gashes I got from my heartbreak 
           Bb                     Am 
Make the slots and the flaps upon my wing 
       G            F       E 
And I use them to give me lip 
    C 
Hip hip for the lift 
E                F 
Hip hip for the drag 
             C        Bb 
I want them all in my bag 
            Am                G        F     E 
Oh give me anything and I'll turn it into a gift
[Chorus]
     Am 
But don't let me ruin me 
E 
I may need a chaperone

[Bridge]
G 
Seek me out 
G         G         G        G      Em 
Look at, look at, look at, look at me 
Em 
I'm all the fishes in the sea 
G 
Wake me up 
G          G        G               G 
Give me, give me, give me what you got 
                       G 
In your mind, in the middle of the night
[Verse]
C    E          F C 
Maybe you let me look out for you 
Bb                Am 
   Protect what I found in you 
     G     F       E 
And never let it starve 
C                E 
   Then that way, you let me stay 
F                 C 
    Skirt in my skirt like I want to 
Bb                 Am                 G        F    E 
    And I will try hard to hold onto you with open arms
[Chorus]
    Am 
But don't let me ruin me 
E 
I may need a chaperone
