When He Sees Me - Sara Bareilles | Guitar Chords | VChords

[Intro]
---------------------
G 

[Verse 1]
---------------------
G 
  I stick with real things
Usually facts and figures
When information's in
Its place I minimize
             F#m
The guessing game
Guess what?
I don't like guessing
F 
Games or when I feel things
Before I know the feelings
How am I supposed to
Operate if I'm just
                 Em
Tossed around by fate?
Like on an unexpected date
With a stranger who

[Pre-Chorus (1)]
---------------------
      Dm 
Might talk too fast
          G 
Or ask me questions
About myself before
       C 
I've decided that
He can ask me
F 
Questions about myself
C /E      Dm 
He  might sit too close
            G 
Or call the waiter
By his first name
       C 
Or eat Oreos
            F 
But eat the cookie
Before the cream
C /E     Dm 
But what scares
Me the most
     E
What scares
Me the most

[Chorus (1)]
---------------------
           A 
Is what if when he sees me
What if he doesn't like it?
What if he runs the other
                    D 
Way and I can't hide  from it
    Ddim 
What     happens then if
A 
When he knows me
He's only disappointed?
What if I give myself away
               D 
To only get it given back?
           Ddim 
I couldn't live with that

[Post-Chorus (1)]
---------------------
   E
So I'm just fine inside
   F#m
My shellshaped mind
This way
  D 
I get the best view
Bm   Dm6 
  So when he sees me,
       G 
I want him to

[Verse 2]
---------------------
G 
  I'm not defensive
I'm simply
Being cautious
I can't risk
Reckless dating
Due to my
               F#m
Miscalculating why
A certain
Suitor stands
   F 
In line I've seen
In movies
Most made
For television
You cannot be
Too careful
When it comes to
                 Em
Sharing your life
I could end up
A miserable wife
            Dm 
He could be criminal

[Pre-Chorus (2)]
---------------------
             G 
Some sort of psychopath
Who escaped from
An institution somewhere
           C 
Where they don't have girls
He could have
F 
Masterminded some
Way to find me
   C /E     Dm 
He could be color blind
      G 
How untrustworthy is that?
            C 
He could be less than kind
        F 
Or even worse,
                 C /E
He could be very nice,
     Dm 
Have lovely eyes
    Dm7 
And make me laugh
     A#
Come out of hiding
          E
What do I do with that?
Oh god

[Chorus (2)]
---------------------
        A 
What if when he sees me
I like him and he knows it
What if he opens up
                        D 
A door and I can't close  it?
    Ddim 
What     happens then?
   A 
If when he holds me
My heart is set in motion
I'm not prepared for that
                        D 
I'm scared of breaking open
E           F#m
 But still I  can't help
        E
From hoping

[Post-Chorus (2)]
---------------------
       F#m          D 
To find  someone to talk to
    E               Bm
Who likes the way I am
            Dm6 
Someone who when
He sees me, wants to again
