lyrics

Everyday when I’m at work
Somehow I get by
Maybe it’s my good looks
I ain’t the smartest guy

But when I see you
All that goes by the wayside
You see right through me
To the things I try to hide

I try to be old school
not act a fool
But I’m just too damn happy
When I’m with you
I try to play it cool
But I’m faking it
I’m faking it badly

When the boys and I go out
To play another show
We may not always know the chords
But no one ever knows

Except for you
You know all the words
You know what I’m trying to say
No matter what you heard

I try to be old school
not act a fool
But I’m just too damn happy
When I’m with you
I try to play it cool
But I’m faking it
I’m faking it badly

I often think that I
Can bullshit my way through life
But when I met you I found out
I wasn’t that sly

All the disguises
The people I try to be
Don’t mean nothing to you
You love me for me

I try to be old school
not act a fool
But I’m just too damn happy
When I’m with you
I try to play it cool
But I’m faking it
I’m faking it badly
