[Verse 1]
        C                        C
You're stubborn as they come, you'll never settle down

       F                     C
You'll always be the one who doesn't stick around

C                        Am
You make all the rules, you're set in your ways

    F                            C
You gotta have your freedom, you gotta have your space
[Chorus]
        C                            C
But one day you'll meet the girl you swore you'd never find

      Am
Start feeling things you never felt and spending all your time

F                                             C         G
Trying to figure out how she got this hold on you

    C
And when you start to fall, you'll hold onto your pride

      Am
Start building up your walls and never let her get inside

F                                                      C     G

                Am                  G              F
And then she'll leave and you won't beg her not to go
C *intro riff* Ask me how I know [Verse 2]
   C                          Am
Go on and shake your head and tell me that I'm wrong

          F                             C
Say, "I'm just another fool and this is just another song"

    C                         Am
But I know how you are 'cause I know how I am

    F                       C
And I'd give anything to go back and try again
[Chorus]
          C                            C
Cause one day you'll meet the girl you swore you'd never find

      Am
