Back Into You
Am7
Verse I
G B7 Am7 C
I remember many summers ago, skipping stones on that pond by the old schoolyard, trespassing on someone's private property,
I went by there yesterday, Well that school is gone just like the pond, conquered by some developer with a profit motive,
We skipped school all day and talked all night about nothing important to anyone else, I remember and miss that most of all,
Now it seems I spend my time working late, worrying about meeting deadlines, making phone calls, when I just want to get back into you,
Back into you,
G C A
Chorus I
G C
You were always more than just a friend of mine,
Never lovers but ever on the borderline,
It's like I cheated because you stayed on my mind,
A C
And now I want to find the time 'cause I'm,
D
Back into you, because
You were always more than just a friend of mine,
Never lovers but ever on the borderline,
It's like I cheated because you stayed on my mind,
And now I want to find the time 'cause I'm,
Back into you,
Am7
Verse II
I never told you you had the hottest little body, and it didn't seem right for you to hang around with me,
But if could have spent all my waking hours doin' nothing but being next to you, that would have been time well spent,
But time it presses on, and things happen that we can't foresee, and all of sudden we're not where we meant to be,
I've tried to make the best of it, thrive where I am, but thriving is not all it's cracked up to be, I want to get back into you,
Back into you
