Berikut ini lirik dan chord lagu "When He Sees Me" dari Sara Bareilles.

[Verse]
Ab
I stick with real things
Usually facts and figures
When information's in its place
                                     Gm
I minimize the guessing game
Guess what?
                                   F#
I don't like guessing games
Or when I feel things
Before I know the feelings
How am I supposed to operate
                                               Fm
If I'm just tossed around by fate?
Like on an unexpected date?
                                       Ebm
The stranger who might talk too fast
                       Ab
Or ask me questions about myself
                      Db
Before I've decided that
                            F#
He can ask me questions about myself
              Ebm
He might sit too close
                    Ab
Or call the waiter by his first name
               Db
Or eat Oreos
                      F#
But eat the cookie before the cream?
              Ebm
But what scares me the most
          F
what scares me the most

[Verse]
               Bb
Is what if when he sees me, what if he doesn't like it?
                                                            Eb
What if he runs the other way and I can't hide from it?
What happens then?
        Bb
If when he knows me, he's only disappointed?
                                                                 Eb
What if I give myself away, to only get it given back?
I couldn't live with that
F                                       Gm
So, I'm just fine, inside my shell-shaped mind
        F         Eb                Dm Cm
This way I get the best view
Ebm                               Ab
So, when he sees me, I want him to

[Verse]
I'm not defensive
I'm simply being cautious
I can't risk reckless dating
Due to my miscalculating
Gm                                           F#
While a certain suitor stands in line
I've seen in movies
Most made for television
You cannot be too careful
                                                 Fm
When it comes to sharing your life
I could end up a miserable wife
                       Ebm                        Ab
He could be criminal, some sort of psychopath
who escaped from an institution,
                                     Db
somewhere where they don't have girls
                        F#
He could have masterminded some way to find me
                   Ebm
He could be colorblind
           Ab
How untrustworthy is that
                    Db
He could be less than kind
F#                                                            Ebm
Or even worse he could be very nice, have lovely eyes
F#/C#                                 B
And make me laugh, come out of hiding
                    F7
What do I do with that?
Oh, God

[Verse]
Bb
What if when he sees me
I like him and he knows it?
What if he opens up a door
                    Eb
And I can't close it?
What happens then?
      Bb
If when he holds me
My heart is set in motion
I'm not prepared for that
                                    Eb
I'm scared of breaking open
But still I can't help from hoping
Gm9                        Eb
To find someone to talk to
F                           Cm
Who likes the way I am
                        Eb
Someone who when he sees me
                 Bb
Wants to again
