[Verse 1]
Em                     C              G                               D
  I'm sitting here all by myself just trying to think of something to do

Em                                 C                G                        D
  I'm trying to think of something anything just to keep me from thinking of you

Em                      C                         G                D
  But you know it's not working out 'cause you're all that's on my mind

Em                      C                         G                   D
  One thought of you is all it takes to leave the rest of the world behind, no
[Chorus]
C              D                G
  And I didn't mean for this to go as far as it did

C             D               G
  And I didn't mean to get so close and share what we did

C              D               Em
  And I didn't mean to fall in love, but I did

        C                      D                   G
And you didn't mean to love me back but I know you did
[Verse 2]
Em                             C                 G                      D
 I'm sitting here trying to convince myself that you're not the one for me

Em                          C                      G                         D
  But the more I think, the less I believe and the more I want you here with me

Em                         C            G                         D
 You know the holidays are coming up, I don't want to spend them alone

Em                     C                     G                    D
  Memories of Christmastime with you'll just kill me if I'm on my own, oh
[Chorus]
C              D                G
  And I didn't mean for this to go as far as it did

C             D               G
  And I didn't mean to get so close and share what we did

C              D               Em
  And I didn't mean to fall in love, but I did

        C                      D
And you didn't mean to love me back
[Bridge]
C                              D                    G                    Em
  I know it's not the smartest thing to do, we just can't seem to get it right

C                                 D                     Em C G
 But what I wouldn't give to have one more chance tonight

D                      Em C G D
  One more chance tonight
[Verse 3]
Em                           C           G                     D
  I'm sitting here trying to entertain myself with this old guitar

Em                     C                G                   D
  But with all my inspiration gone it's not getting me very far

Em                          C            G                 D
  I look around my room and everything I see reminds me of you

   Em                     C                      G              D
Oh please baby won't you take my hand we've got nothing left to prove, oh
[Chorus]
C              D                G
  And I didn't mean for this to go as far as it did

C             D               G
  And I didn't mean to get so close and share what we did

C              D               Em
  And I didn't mean to fall in love, but I did

        C                      D                   G
And you didn't mean to love me back but I know you did
[Outro]
C              D                G
  And I didn't mean to meet you then when we were just kids

C              D                G
  And I didn't mean to give you chills, the way that I kiss

C              D               Em
  And I didn't mean to fall in love, but I did

        C                      D                   Em
And you didn't mean to love me back but I know you did

      C                      D                        Em
Don't say you didn't love me back 'cause you know you did

       C              D                       G
No you didn't mean to love me back... But you did.
