Verse:
E Bm
How come you always wind up changing your direction?
E G
How come you always end up dancing through the room?
E Bm
How come you always never wanna use protection?
E G
How come you're floating like a helium balloon?
Chorus:
E F#
I can't keep up
A E
You're moving too fast
E F#
I got to know
A E
Is this gonna last?
E F#
Cause I can't tell whether
A E
You're up or you're down
E F# A E
This whole situation is spinning me round
F#
Spinning me round
A
Spinning me round

You say you want me

Then your up and your gone

I got to know just where your coming from

Coming from, where you're coming from

One way or the other
C#m B A
If your stringing me along

Spinning me round

Spinning me round
