Dm7 A#maj7            Am7     Dm7 A#maj7 C
I         think I'll go it alone
Dm7           A#maj7   Am7     Dm7  A#maj7 C
You should've shown me if you cared
Dm7  A#maj7           Am7         Dm7 A#maj7 C
Lies     will turn a heart into stone
Dm7            A#maj7   Am7      Dm7 A#maj7 C
Few would have known me if they dared

Chorus:
          D#maj7                  Dm7
Cause I'm takin' it back where it all began
    G#maj7                 Gm7
The house on the cape, the place on the sand
    D#maj7                    Dm7
I'd take it all back, if it'd just make you
 G 
understand

Girl, how I've tried to forget you
Now it would take more than I could buy
Sure I could lie to myself too
But that won't work, seeing that I've tried

Chorus:
Cause I'm takin' it back where it all began
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 assured
You'd better watch your every move
Stop, think about every word
It's looking like you're going to lose

Chorus:
Cause I'm takin' it back where it all began
The house on the cape, the place on the sand
I'd take it all back, if it'd just make you
understand

C Dm7                   A#maj7   Am7      Dm7 A#maj7
    Still you should've shown me if you cared
C Dm7              A#maj7   Am7         Dm7 A#maj7
     You should've shown me if you cared
C Dm7                  A#maj7   Am7       Dm7 A#maj7
    Still you should've shown me if you cared
