    [Verse 1]
                       C
    I\'m beginning to like you
                              G
    But, you know that ain\'t right
                         D
    \'Cause you\'ll just twist and 
    twist and twist
                           G
    Till I\'m all crooked inside
                              C
    Then you\'ll take all you gave me
                        G
    Like it never was there
            D
    And I think that I might,
    No! I know
                           G
    Yes, I will help you there
    \'Cause....

                    G
    I\'ve done it before

    And I\'d do it again
                     D

    [Verse 2]
                        C
    I\'m a victim of friction
                        G
    I got too close to see
                D
    Yeah, we sparked in the dark
                            G
    And God hung a light on me
                            C
    And the lamp gets real heavy
                    G
    Hangs from my heart
             D
    And it comes
    And it goes
    Till I can\'t tell the 
                 G
    difference apart
    But....
    
    [Chorus]
                    G
    I\'ve done it before
     C              G
    And I\'d do it again
                     D
    \'Cause it\'s the only time
    That makes me feel like I\'m
                   G
    My own best friend
    
    [Verse 3]
              D
    So many people say
                          G
    I\'ll never work out that way
                B7
    You can\'t stand the heat
    While you\'re watching your 
                C
    heart just melt away
                          A
    In the basement on a rainy day
    D
    La la la
    C
    La la la
    Bm
    La la la
                D
    La la la La La.....

    By the light of the color T.V.\'s
                         C
    The maid calls you Honey
                         G
    She makes your bed slow
               D
    And she speaks
    Of the sheets That don\'t fit
                            G
    But you know that she knows
    
    [Chorus]

    I\'ve done it before
     C              G
    And I\'d do it again

    [Intro]
    G

    [Verse 1]
    G
    I’ve been down this road before
    Am
    I remember every tree
    D
    Every single blade of grass
    G
    Holds a special place for me

    And I remember every town
    Am
    And every hotel room
    D
    And every song I ever sang
    G
    On a guitar out of tune

    [Verse 2]
    G                                 C
    I remember everything
    G
    Things I can’t forget
    Am
    The way you turned and smiled on me
    D
    On the night that we first met
    C
    And I remember every night
    G
    Your ocean eyes of blue
    D
    How I miss you in the morning light
    G
    Like roses miss the dew
    G C G D G

    [Verse 3]
    G
    I’ve been down this road before
    Am
    Alone as I can be
    D
    Careful not to let my past
    G
    Go sneaking up on me

    Got no future in my happiness
    Am
    Though regrets are very few
    D
    Sometimes a little tenderness
    G
    Was the best that I could do

    [Verse 4]
    G                             C
    I remember everything
    G
    Things I can’t forget
    Am
    Swimming pools of butterflies
    D
    That slipped right through the net
    C
    And I remember every night
    G
    Your ocean eyes of blue
    D
    How I miss you in the morning light
    G
    Like roses miss the dew

    [Reprise]
    G                                           D
    How I miss you in the morning light
    G
    Like roses miss the dew
