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 
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 fallin'
G
  Back in love with you

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?

It's the first thing I do

I tell you that I think I'm fallin'
G
  Back in love with you
