Lyrics

TAKE IT BACK SAY YOU DON'T MEAN IT
VERSE 1
D G A
You came home and told me you don't love me anymore. And you tell me
D G D
that you found somebody new. Well before you pack your bags and walk
G A D
right out that door. There's just one thing I want to ask of you
CHORUS
G A G
Take it back say you don't mean it. There must be some mistake. Cause I
D G D
thought everything was going fine. Just sit down and talk to me and help
G A D
me understand what it was that made you change your mind.
VERSE 2
D G A
Now what about that life we planned with a backyard full of kids In a big
D G
two story house with a picket fence. Where we'd spend our life when we got
D G A
older on that front porch swing. Let me ask you one more time in my
D
defense. REPEAT CHORUS
VERSE 3
D G
Well I'm guessing cause I just don't know. Tell me what did I do wrong?
A D G
Is there something I can do to make you stay? Maybe you could sleep on it
D G A
and feel different in the morning. If you're gonna leave just please don't
D
leave today. REPEAT CHORUS
G A D
Please tell me what it was that made you change your mind.
