[Chorus]
              B            F#
I don’t wanna dance with a Maniac
        G#m                    E
Cus the moment we touch it’s a heart attack
B                    F#
 You know I love you honey
               G#m            E
but you got me running “yaaaaa”
               B             F#
I could give a damn you’re a maniac
        G#m                          E
and you talking like a killer got me on my back

How am I supposed to ever move on
             B
Why is it so complicated
                  F#
You said that you didn’t love me
                   G#m
Said you’re workin on yourself
                  E
You ain’t been to therapy since 2020

Something isn’t right
       F#
See it in your eyes
              G#m                     E
Always give advice, never taking mine when I say goodnight

Took the lyrics directly from the original
YouTube video. If you want to, play only the
chords as power chords then it sounds more like
in the original song. This is probably not the
best version so feel free to play around
with the chords.
Have fun!
