On second thought    (video)

 

    E - E7 - D - A

 

               A                                                          D           - Bm

1. Sometimes, a man does things without half thinking,

               E               E7                   A      - E

    and what I saw, I did not understand.

       A                                                                     D            - Bm

    I called you names and said some things that hurt you,

                       D                     E                       A 

    and in the heat, I started walking out that door.

 

             D                                            A

But on second thought, I'll just turn around here in my tracks,

                 E                                              A                  A7

and walk back into your arms where I belong, I was wrong.

        D                                  A

On second thought, I apologize for what I've done,

                             E                E7                D       A

'cause you're the only one I'll always be in love with.

 

+  E - E7 - D - A

 

          A                                                        D     - Bm

2. I know it's not your fault that you're so pretty,

              E                                E7                   A                  E

    and that you've turned the head of every man, I understand.

                       A                                                 D        - Bm

    But when I saw you dancing with him, I just lost it,

                    D                    E                    A 

    I started thinking I don't love you anymore.

 

+  CHORUS      + E - E7 - D - A

 

+ repeat verse 2 (lines 1 & 2 as instrumental)       +  CHORUS

 

                              E                E7                D       A

+  Yes, you're the only one I'll always be in love with.
