🎶 The Alcott

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

And the [C]last thing you wanted
Is the [G]first thing I do
I [Am]tell you my problems
You [G]tell me the truth
It's the [C]last thing you wanted
It's the [G]first thing I do
I [Am]tell you that I think I'm fallin'
[G]Back in love with you

[Dm]I sit there silently [C]waiting [G]for you [Dm]to look up ah [C]ah [G]ah
[F]I see you smile when [C][G]you see [F]it's me [C] [G]
I [Dm]had to do something to [C]break into [G]your [Dm]golden thinking [C] [G]
[F]How many times will I [C]do this and [G]you'll [F]still believe? [C] [G]

It's the [C]last thing you wanted
Tell me which side are you on, dear?
It's the [G]first thing you do
Give me some tips to forget you
You [Am]tell me your problems
Have I become one of your problems?
And I [G]tell you the truth
Could it be easy this once?
It's the [C]last thing you wanted
Everything that's mine is a landmine
It's the [G]first thing I do
Did my love aid and abet you?
I [Am]tell you that I think I'm fallin'
[G]Back in love with you

And I'll [F]ruin it all over ha ha
I'll [Am]ruin it for you ha ha
I'll [C]ruin it all over ha
And over like [G]I always do
Why don't you [F]
I'll ruin it all over
Rain on my parade? [Am]
I'll ruin it for you
Shred my evening gown [C]
I'll ruin it all over
Read my sentence out loud [G]
And over like I always do
'cause I love this curse on our house

It's the [C]last thing I wanted
Tell me which side are you on, dear?
It's the [G]first thing I do
Give me some tips to forget you
I [Am]tell you my problems
Have I become one of your problems?
And you [G]tell me the truth
Could it be easy this once?
It's the [C]last thing I wanted
Everything that's mine is a landmine
It's the [G]first thing I do
Did my love aid and abet you?
I [Am]tell you that I think I'm fallin'

[G]Back in love, back in love with [F]you [C] [G]
Back in love
[F] [C]Back in [G]love with [F]you [C] [G]
[F] [C] [G]
