[Verse 1]
Dm C G Dm C G
I get myself twisted in threads to meet you at The Alcott
F C G F C G
I go to the corner in the back where you’d always be
Dm C G Dm C G
And there you are sittin’ as usual with your golden notebook
F C G F C G
Writin’ something about someone who used to be me

[Chorus 1]
C
And the last thing you wanted
G/B
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/B
It’s the first thing I do
Am
I tell you that I think I’m fallin’
G
Back in love with you

[Verse 2]
Dm C G Dm C G
I sit there silently waiting 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
I had to do something to break into your golden thinking
F C G F C G
How many times will I do this and you’ll still believe?

[Chorus 2]
C
It’s the last thing you wanted
(Tell me which side are you on, dear?)
G/B
It’s the first thing you 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/B
It’s the first thing I do
(Did my love aid and abet you?)
Am
I tell you that I think I’m fallin’
G
Back in love with you

[Bridge]
F
And I’ll ruin it all over (ha ha)
Am
I’ll ruin it for you (ha ha)
C
I’ll ruin it all over (ha)
G
And over like I always do

F
(Why don’t you)
I’ll ruin it all over
Am
(Rain on my parade?)
I’ll ruin it for you
C
(Shred my evening 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)

[Chorus 3]
C
It’s the last thing I wanted
(Tell me which side are you on, dear?)
G/B
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/B
It’s the first thing I do
(Did my love aid and abet you?)
Am
I tell you that I think I’m fallin’
G F C G
Back in love, back in love with you
(Back in love)

[Outro]

Back in love with you
