Lyrics

I know I can’t take one more step towards you,

’cause all that’s wait ing is re gret.

And don’t you know I’m not your ghost an y more;

you lost the love I loved the (Ab)most.

I learned to (Ab)live (Cm)half a (Bb)live,

and now you (Ab)want me one more time.

And who do you think you are,

run ning ’round leav ing (Cm)scars, col lect ing your jar of hearts, and (Abm)tear ing love a part?

You’re gon na catch a cold from the ice in side your (Cm)soul.

So don’t come back for (Ab)me.

(Abm)Who do you think you are?

I hear you’re ask ing all a round

if I am an y where to be found.

But I have grown too (Eb)strong

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

I’ve learned to (Ab)live

(Cm)half a (Bb)live,

and now you (Ab)want me one more time.

(Cm)It took so (G)long just to (Cm)feel al (F)right, re (Cm)mem ber how to (G)put back the (Cm)light in my (F)eyes.

I (Cm)wish I had (G)missed the first (Cm)time that we (F)kissed ’cause (Cm)you broke (G)all your (Cm)prom is (F)es.

And (Ab)now you’re back,

you don’t get to (G)get me back.

And who do you think you are,

run ning ’round leav ing (Cm)scars, col lect ing your jar of hearts,

and (Abm)tear ing love a part?

You’re gon na catch a cold from the ice in side your (Cm)soul.

So don’t come back for (Ab)me,

(Abm)don’t come back at (Eb)all.

And who do you think you’re are,

run ning ’round leav ing (Cm)scars, col lect ing your jar of hearts,

(Abm)tear ing love a part?

You’re gon na catch a cold from the ice in side your (Cm)soul.

Don’t come back for (Ab)me,

don’t come back at (Eb)all.

(Ab)Who do you think you are?
