Lyrics

I know I can’t take one more (C)step

toward you,

’cause all that’s wait ing is re (Dm)gret.

And don’t you know I’m not your (C)ghost

an y more,

you lost the love I love the (F)most.

I learned to live

(Am)half

a (G)live,

and now you (F)want me one more

time.

And who do you think you (G)are,

run ning ’round leav ing (Am)scars,

col lect ing your jar of (Fm)hearts

and tear ing love a (C)part?

You’re gon na catch a (G)cold

from the ice in side your (Am)soul.

So don’t come back for (F)me.

(Fm)Who do you think you (C)are?

I hear you’re ask ing all a round

if I am an y where to be (Dm)found,

but I have grown too (C)strong

to ev er fall back in your (F)arms.

(C)are?

And (Am)it took so (E)long just to (C)feel al (D7)right,

re (Am)mem ber how to (E)put back the (C)light in my (D7)eyes.

I (Am)wish I had (E)missed the first (C)time that we (D7)kissed

’cause (Am)you broke (E)all your (C)prom is (D7)es.

And (F)now you’re back,

you don’t get to (E)get me

back.

And who do you think you (G)are,

run ning ’round leav ing (Am)scars,

col lect ing your jar of (Fm)hearts

and tear ing love a (C)part?

You’re gon na catch a (G)cold

from the ice in side your (Am)soul.

So don’t come back for (Fm)me,

don’t come back at (C)all.

And who do you think you (G)are,

run ning ’round leav ing (Am)scars,

col lect ing your jar of (F)hearts,

(Fm)tear ing love a (C)part?

You’re gon na catch a (G)cold

from the ice in side your (Am)soul.

Don’t come back for (F)me,

(Fm)don’t come back at (C)all.

(Fdim)Who do you think you (C)are?

(Fdim)Who do you think you (C)are?

(Fdim)Who do you think you (C)are?
