[Intro]
D D/A D/G
D D/A D/G
[Verse 1]
D D/A D/G
Called you on the phone today
D D/A D/G
Just to ask you how you were
D D/A D/G
All I did was speak normally
D D/A G
Somehow, I still struck a nerve
D D/A D/G
You got me fucked up in the head, boy
D D/A D/G
Never doubted myself so much
D D/A D/G
Like, am I pretty? Am I fun, boy?
D D/A D/G
I hate that I give you power over that kinda stuff
[Chorus]
D F#5 G D
'Cause it's always one step forward and three steps back
D F#m G D
I'm the love of your life until I make you mad
D F#m G D
It's always one step forward and three steps back
D F#5
Do you love me, want me, hate me?
G D
Boy, I don't understand
G D
No, I don't understand
[Verse 2]
D D/A D/G
And maybe in some masochistic way
D D/A D/G
I kind of find it all exciting
D D/A D/G

Like, which lover will I get today?
D D/A D/G
Will you walk me to the door or send me home crying?
[Chorus]
D F#5 G D
It's one step forward and three steps back
D F#m G D
I'm the love of your life until I make you mad
D F#5 G D
It's always one step forward and three steps back
D F#5
Do you love me, want me, hate me?
G D
Boy, I don't understand
[Bridge]
D F#m G D
No, it's back and forth, did I say something wrong?
D F#5 G D
It's back and forth, going over everything I said
D F#m G D
It's back and forth, did I do something wrong?
D F#5 G D
It's back and forth, maybe this is all your fault instead
[Chorus]
D F#5 G D
It's one step forward and three steps back
D F#m G D
And I'd leave you, but the rollercoaster's all I've ever had
D F#m G D
Yeah, it's one step forward and three steps back
D F#5
Do you love me, want me, hate me?
G D
Boy, I don't understand
G D
No, I don't understand
