C                  G
Started off as a good thing, sure thing
   Em          D
You held back, but I know
C             G
In the moment our lips touched
              Em          D
The rush sent us straight to the moon
                       C               G
I should've known that we'd be coming down
              Em                  D
Right to the bottom where we are now, mmm
C                 G
Started off as a good thing, sure thing
Em             D
What the hell did I do? Yeah

Chorus:
C              G
Every time I think I love somebody
Em             D
Always find a way to throw it all away
C             G
I don't ever wanna hurt nobody
Em             D
I don't wanna be the one to say
C              G
That we gotta have a conversation
Em             D
I don't wanna watch the tears roll down your face
C               G
No, I hurt you, and I, I'm sorry
Em                D
All I wanted was to love somebody

C         G
Why do I do this?
         Em
Pick you up and put you down
     D
And put you through this

Started off as a good thing, a sure thing
You held back, but I know
In the moment our lips touched
The rush sent us straight to the moon
I should've known that we'd be coming down
Right to the bottom where we are now, mmm
Started off as a good thing, a sure thing
What the hell did I do? Yeah

Chorus

Why do I do this?
Pick you up and put you down and put you through this
Why do I do this?
Pick you up and put you down and put you through this
Why do I do this?
(Every time I think I love somebody)
Pick you up and put you down and put you through this
(Always find a way to throw it all away)
Why do I do this?
(I don't ever wanna hurt nobody)
Pick you up and put you down and put you through this
(I don't wanna be the one to say)
[Outro]
That we gotta have a conversation
I don't wanna watch the tears roll down your face
No, I hurt you and I, I'm sorry
All I wanted was to love somebody
