C                         G
You, you walked into the room
                 Am
On a Friday afternoon
                                     F
That's when I saw you for the first time

And I was paralyzed

C                         G
I had a million things to say
                               Am
But none of them came out that day
                                 F
'Cause I was never one of those guys

That always had the best lines

[Pre-Chorus]

Am
Time stops ticking
        G
My hands keep shaking
    F              G
And you don't even know that

C
I try to speak but girl you got me tongue-tied
G
I try to breathe but I'm f-f-f-frozen inside
Am
I try to move but I'm stuck in my shoes
           F               G
You got me paralyzed, paralyzed, p-p-p-paralyzed

C                                              G
I see you walking, but all you do is pass me by
                                                    Am
Can't even talk, cause words don't come into my mind

I'd make a move if I had the guts to
        F               G
But I'm paralyzed, paralyzed, p-p-p-paralyzed

C                                 G
Now I learned a lot from my mistake
                               Am
Never let a good thing slip away
                                F
I've had a lot of time to look back

And my only regret is

[Pre-Chorus]

Am                   G
Not telling you what I was going through
      F         G
You didn't even know that

C
I try to speak but girl you got me tongue-tied
G
I try to breathe but I'm f-f-f-frozen inside
Am
I try to move but I'm stuck in my shoes
           F               G
You got me paralyzed, paralyzed, p-p-p-paralyzed

C
I see you walking, but all you do is pass me by
G
Can't even talk, cause words don't come into my mind
Am
I'd make a move if I had the guts to
        F                     G
But I'm paralyzed, paralyzed, p-p-p-paralyzed

[Bridge]

F                                     C
As the years go by I think about you all the time
      F                                G
If I get the chance I hope I won't be paralyzed
               C
Paralyzed by you
                       G
You walked into the room
                   Am
On a Friday afternoon

C
I try to speak but girl you got me tongue-tied
G
I try to breathe but I'm f-f-f-frozen inside
Am
I try to move but I'm stuck in my shoes
           F                     G
You got me paralyzed, paralyzed, p-p-p-paralyzed

C                                              G
I see you walking, but all you do is pass me by
                                                   Am
Can't even talk, cause words don't come into my mind

I'd make a move if I had the guts to
        F               G
But I'm paralyzed, paralyzed, p-p-p-paralyzed

[Outro]

C
Paralyzed, paralyzed

(You got me tongue tied)

G
Paralyzed, paralyzed

(Now I'm frozen inside)

Am
Paralyzed, paralyzed
           F               G
You got me paralyzed, paralyzed, p-p-p-paralyzed
