Plain White T's - A Lonely September
Capo 2nd fret
[Verse 1]
EmI'm sitting here all Cby myself just Gtrying to think of something to Ddo
EmI'm trying to think of something Canything just to Gkeep me from thinking of Dyou
EmBut you know it's not Cworking out 'cause you're Gall that's on my Dmind
EmOne thought of you is Call it takes to leave the Grest of the world beDhind, no
[Chorus]
CAnd I didn't Dmean for this to Ggo as far as it did
CAnd I didn't Dmean to get so Gclose and share what we did
CAnd I didn't Dmean to fall in Emlove, but I did
And you Cdidn't mean to love me Dback but I know you Gdid
[Verse 2]
EmI'm sitting here trying to conCvince myself that Gyou're not the one for Dme
EmBut the more I think, the Cless I believe and the Gmore I want you here with Dme
EmYou know the holidays are Ccoming up, I Gdon't want to spend them aDlone
EmMemories of ChristmasCtime with you'll just Gkill me if I'm on my Down, oh
[Chorus]
CAnd I didn't Dmean for this to Ggo as far as it did
CAnd I didn't Dmean to get so Gclose and share what we did
CAnd I didn't Dmean to fall in Emlove, but I did
And you Cdidn't mean to love me Dback
[Bridge]
CI know it's not the smartest Dthing to do, we just Gcan't seem to get it Emright
CBut what I wouldn't give to have Done more chance tonighEmtC  G  
DOne more chance tonigEmhtC  G  D  
[Verse 3]
EmI'm sitting here trying to Centertain myGself with this old guiDtar
EmBut with all my inspiCration gone it's Gnot getting me very Dfar
EmI look around my room and Ceverything I Gsee reminds me of Dyou
Oh Emplease baby won't you tCake my hand we've got nGothing left to Dprove, oh
[Chorus]
CAnd I didn't Dmean for this to Ggo as far as it did
CAnd I didn't Dmean to get so Gclose and share what we did
CAnd I didn't Dmean to fall in Emlove, but I did
And you Cdidn't mean to love me Dback but I know you Gdid
[Outro]
CAnd I didn't Dmean to meet you Gthen when we were just kids
CAnd I didn't Dmean to give you Gchills, the way that I kiss
CAnd I didn't Dmean to fall in Emlove, but I did
And you Cdidn't mean to love me Dback but I know you Emdid
Don't Csay you didn't love me Dback 'cause you know you Emdid
No you Cdidn't mean to Dlove me back... But you Gdid.
