[D] [A] [D] You [E] want me to try and forget you, [D] do [A] the best I can.

[A] then out comes another one of [D] your friends.
And that [E] really blows your mind.
[G#] So you go and think about it.
You say to yourself, [D] babe, I realize I've done wrong, but please forgive me.
And [A] with a smirky smile on her [D] face, then she look up [A] at you and she says,
If you ever think about me, oh, I think about you, baby.
If you ever [Bm]
[A] change your mind, oh, you stay on my mind, baby.
If you ever [D] think about me, I think I think about you.
