[Primeira Parte]

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

[Refrão 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

[Segunda Parte]

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?

[Refrão 2]

         C
It's the last thing you wanted

(Tell me which side are you on, dear?)
         G
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
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

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)
