E F#m D
i’m sittin’ here all by myself ,
A E
just tryin’ to think of something to do .
F#m D
tryin’ to think of something , anything ,
A E
just to keep me from thinking of you .
F#m D
but , you know , it’s not working out ,
A E
’cause you’re all that’s on my mind .
F#m D
one thought of you is all it takes
A E
to leave the rest of the world behind , oh .

D E A
well i didn’t mean for this to go as far as it did .
D E A
and i didn’t mean to get so close and share what we did .
D E F#m
and i didn’t mean to fall in love , but i did .
D E A
and you didn’t mean to love me back , but i know you did .

E F#m D
i’m sittin’ here tryin’ to convince myself
A E
that you’re not the one for me .
F#m D
but the more i think , the less i believe it
A E
and the more i want you here with me .
F#m D
you know the holidays are coming up;
A E
i don’t want to spend them alone .
F#m D
memories of christmas time with you
A E
will just kill me if i’m on my own .

D E A
well i didn’t mean for this to go as far as it did .
D E A
and i didn’t mean to get so close and share what we did .
D E F#m
and i didn’t mean to fall in love , but i did .
D E
and you didn’t mean to love me back .
A E
i know it’s not the smartest thing to do;
A F#m
we just can’t seem to get it right .
D E
but , what i wouldn’t give to have one more chance tonight .
F#m D A E
one more chance tonight .
F#m D A E

F#m D
i’m sittin’ here tryin’ to entertain
A E
myself with this old guitar .
F#m D
but with all my inspiration gone ,
A E
it’s not gettin’ me very far .
F#m D
i look around my room and everything
A E
i see reminds me of you .
F#m D
oh please , baby won’t you take my hand ,
A E
we’ve got nothing left to prove .

D E A
well i didn’t mean for this to go as far as it did .
D E A
and i didn’t mean to get so close and share what we did .
D E F#m
and i didn’t mean to fall in love , but i did .
D E
and you didn’t mean to love me back , but i know you did .

D E A
and i didn’t mean to meet you then , when we were just kids .
D E A
and i didn’t mean to give you chills , the way that i kiss .
D E F#m
and i didn’t mean to fall in love , but i did .
D E F#m
and you didn’t mean to love me back , but i know you did .
D E F#m
don’t say you didn’t love me back , ’cause you know you did .
D E A
no , you didn’t mean to love me back , but you did .
