| Fsus2 | Am7 | G |
[Verse 1]
Fsus2
There's a dive right down the street
Am7 G
It's your favorite place to drink, until last call
Fsus2
There's a jukebox in the corner
Am7 G
Turns a dollar and a quarter into our song
[Pre-Chorus]
Fsus2 Am7
I know better than to ever show up on a Friday night
G
In this smoky bar, underneath these neon lights
[Chorus]
C/E Fsus2
But I'm back at it again
Am7
Two drinks pulling you in
G
Getting caught up in your eyes
G
One more, one last time
C/E Fsus2
It's crazy how one kiss from your lips can hit undo
Am7
On all that getting over you
G
Just when I think I'm moving on from square one
N.C. Fsus2
I'm back at it again
Am7 G
Yeah, I'm back at it again
[Verse 2]
C/E Fsus2
Probably shouldn't close that tab
Am7 G
Probably shouldn't take that cab back to your place
Fsus2 Am7
But it's too late to turn around even though I swore
G
I wouldn't end the night crashin' right through your door
[Chorus]
C/E Fsus2
But I'm back at it again
Am7
Two drinks pulling you in
G
Getting caught up in your eyes
G
One more, one last time

On all that getting over you

Just when I think I'm moving on from square one

I'm back at it again
Am7 G
Baby, I'm back at it again
[Bridge]
C/E Fsus2
To that place where I can't help it
G
I forget why we ever said goodbye
[Chorus]
Fsus2
But I'm back at it again
Am7
Two drinks pulling you in
G
Getting caught up in your eyes
G
One more, one last time
C/E Fsus2
It's crazy how one kiss from your lips can hit undo
Am7
On all that getting over you
G
Just when I think I'm moving on from square one
C/E Fsus2
I'm back at it again
Am7 G
Baby, I'm back at it again

On all this getting over you

Just when I think I'm moving on from square one

I'm back at it again, oh, oh
