[Verse]
     Am            C
You know you’re in trouble
         F               C
When the spotlight is on you
      F             C
When nothing can be trusted
              Am           G
And you don’t know what to do
     F          C
Hold on to yourself
            F            C
You’re just someone like me
            F       C
And you’re slowly becoming
            Am            G
What you’re pretending to be


[Chorus]
          F                       Am
I’ve been meaning to sing you the song
          G                       F           C      F Am7 C Am Em G
I’ve been meaning to sing you the song for so long

[Verse]
       Am             C
And to all you good people
           F             C
That were lost along the way
        F             C
I have need for your smiles
    Am           G
And friendship today
          F       C
All those magical nights
         F           C
When our aim seemed so true
       F                 C
You of all must know the reason
         Am          G
I still feel like i do

[Chorus]
           F                      Am
I’ve been meaning to sing you the song
          Dm                     G                 F Am7 C  Am Em G
I’ve been meaning to sing you the song for so long

[Bridge]
       F        C
I must take to stage
       F         C
I need nerves of steel
   F           C
No matter how weak
        Am           G
And how weightless i feel.
       F                     Am
I just wanted to come across strong
             G                    F       G
Who, really, who was i trying to fool

[Chorus]
           F                      Am
I’ve been meaning to sing you the song
          Dm                      G                F Am C Am Em G C
I’ve been meaning to sing you the song for so long
           F                      Am
I’ve been meaning to sing you the song
          Dm                      G                F Am C Am Em G C
I’ve been meaning to sing you the song for so long
