Dm C I get myself twisted in threads G Dm C G To meet you at The Alcott F C I go to the corner in the back G F C G Where you'd always be Dm C And there you are, sitting as usual G Dm C G With your golden notebook F C Writing something about someone G F C G Who used to be me
C And the last thing you wanted G Is the first thing I do Am I tell you my problems G You tell me the truth C It's the last thing you wanted G It's the first thing I do Am I tell you that I think I'm falling G Back in love with you

Verse 2:

Dm C G Dm C G I sit there silently, waitin' for you to look up (ah ah ah) F C G F C G I see you smile when you see it's me Dm C G Dm C G Ci had to do something to break into your golden thinking(ah ah ah) F C G F C G How many times will I do this and you'll still believe?
C It's the last thing you wanted (Tell me, which side are you on, dear?) G Is the first thing I do (Give me some tips to forget you) Am You tell me your problems (Have I become one of your problems?) G And I tell you the truth (Could it be easy this once?) C It's the last thing you wanted (Everything that's mine is a landmine) G It's the first thing I do (Did my love aid and abet you?) Am I tell you that I think I'm falling G Back in love with you

I'll ruin it for you C (Shred my evenin' gown) I'll ruin it all over G (Read my sentence out loud) And over like I always do ('Cause I love this curse on our house)
C It's the last thing I wanted (Tell me, which side are you on, dear?) G It's the first thing I do (Give me some tips to forget you) Am I tell you my problems (Have I become one of your problems?) G And you tell me the truth (Could it be easy this once?) C It's the last thing I wanted (Everything that's mine is a landmine) G It's the first thing I do (Did my love aid and abet you?)
