Intro
Gbm
VERSE
Gbm D
I'm sittin' here all by myself
A E
Just tryin' to think of something to do
Gbm D
Tryin' to think of something, anything
A E
Just to keep me from thinking of you
Gbm D
But you know it's not working out
A E
'cause you're all that's on my mind
Gbm D
One thought of you is all it takes
A E
To leave the rest of the world behind
CHORUS
D E A
Well I didn't mean for this to go as far as it did
D E A
And I didn't mean to get so close and share what we did
D E Gbm
And I didn't mean to fall in love, but I did
D E A
And you didn't mean to love me back but I know you did
VERSE
Gbm D
I'm sittin' here tryin' to convince myself
A E
That you're not the one for me
Gbm D
But the more I think, the less I believe it
A E
And the more I want you here with me
Gbm D
You know the holidays are coming up
A E
I don't want to spend them alone
Gbm D
Memories of Christmas time with you
A E
Will just kill me if I'm on my own
CHORUS
D E A
Well I didn't mean for this to go as far as it did
D E A
And I didn't mean to get so close and share what we did
D E Gbm
And I didn't mean to fall in love, but I did
D E
And you didn't mean to love me back
BRIDGE
D E
I know it's not the smartest thing to do
Gbm
we just can't seem to get it right
D E
But what I wouldn't give to have one more chance tonight
Gbm D A E (x2)

Gbm D A E
I'm sittin' here tryin' to entertain myself with this old guitar

But with all my inspiration goneit's not getting me very far

Oh please, baby won't you take my hand

we've got nothing left to prove
CHORUS

And you didn't mean to love me back but I know you did
END CHORUS

And I didn't mean to meet you then we were just kids
D E A
And I didn't mean to give you chills the way that I kiss
D E Gbm
And I didn't mean to fall in love, but I did
D E Gbm
And you didn't mean to love me back but I know you did
