Dm7
I've been thinking 'bout my thoughtless words
And I know just how much they must have hurt
              Gm    F Gm
And I take it back
Gm                       Dm7
Won't you let me take it back

Dm7
You know I told you that I don't love you
That I'd be better off with someone new
               Gm
But I take it back
Gm                        A
Won't you let me take it back

Chorus:
                  Dm7 C     Gm
Girl you know that I still love you
                Dm7 C     Gm
And you know that I'm so alone
              Dm7 C Gm
I don't know why
                              F Gm
I told you that I didn't need you
                        Dm7
Can't you see that baby I was wrong

A#7                             Dm7
What I wouldn't give to be your lover again
A#7                          Dm7
All I want to do is touch your skin
A#7
If I had you right here right now
G
I'd tell you, tell you, tell you, tell you

Chorus:
Girl, you know that I still love you
And you know that I'm so alone
And I don't know why I told you that
I didn't need you
Can't you see that, baby, I was wrong
