[Opening]
I [E]used to be in love with [G#m]you, you [C#m]use to be the first thing on my [A]mind

I [C#m]miss you, I mean it, I tried not to feel it, but [A]I can’t get you out of my head
And [E]I want you to miss me, [G#m]when I’m not around you
I [C#m]know that you’re in town, why [A]won’t you come around to the spot that we met

[section 2]
I’m not the [E]type of girl for you, and I’m not [B]going to pretend
That I’m the [C#m]type of girl you call more than a [A]friend
And I [E]break all the rules for you, break my [B]heart and start again
I’m not the [C#m]type of girl you call more than a [A]friend

[section 3]
I [E]bet she acts so perfectly, [G#m]you [C#m]probably eat up every word she [A]says
And [E]if you ever think of [G#m]me, I [C#m]bet I’m just a flicker in your [A]head

[chorus]
But I still [E]love you, I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I love you, I [G#m]didn’t mean to say what I said
I [C#m]miss you, I mean it, I tried not to feel it, but [A]I can’t get you out of my head
And [E]I want you to miss me, [G#m]when I’m not around you
I [C#m]know that you’re in town, why [A]won’t you come around to the spot that we met

[chorus]
I’m not the [E]type of girl for you, and I’m not [B]going to pretend
That I’m the [C#m]type of girl you call more than a [A]friend
And I [E]break all the rules for you, break my [B]heart and start again
I’m not the [C#m]type of girl you call more than a [A]friend
I’ll make [E]time for you (time for [B]you-ooh), I’ll make [C#m]time for you (time for [A]you-ooh)

[Closing]
I [E]love you, I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I love you, I [G#m]didn’t mean to say what I said
