Dm7 Bbmaj7      Am7     Dm7  Bbmaj7 C
 I   think I'll go it a-lone

 You should've shown me if you cared

 Lies will turn a heart into stone

 Few would have known me if they dared

 Cause I'm takin it back where it all began

    Abmaj7                 Gm7
The house on the cape, the place on the sand

I'd take it all back, if it'd just make you understand

 Girl how I've tried to for-get you

 Now it would take more than I could buy

 Sure I could lie to my-self too

Dm7                   Bbmaj7 Am7       Dm7   Bbmaj7
 But that won't work, seeing that I've tried
[Chorus 2]

I'd live in a shack eating out of a can

I'd take it all back, if it'd just make you understand

   Now that I'm feeling as-sured

 You'd better watch your every move

 Stop think a-bout every word

 It's looking like you're going to lose

 Cause I'm takin it back where it all began

The house on the cape, the place on the sand
