[Chorus]
                 Bb  C         Dm       F
Thought I was ready, ready for someone else
          Bb                          C     Dm                    F
But every time I get ahead of myself, every time I get ahead of myself
                  Bb            C        Dm      F   
Thought I was rock steady, that I didn't need no help
          Bb                          C     Dm                    F
But every time I get ahead of myself, every time I get ahead of myself

[Verse 1]
Am                     Bb                     F
Guess I went ahead and jumped the gun again
     Am               Bb                  F
Some shitty situation that I put you in
      Am        Bb               F 
And I know we poured champagne
Am                    Bb                   F
Maybe we was just too quick to celebrate

[Chorus]
                 Bb  C         Dm       F

I get ahead of myself, yeah babe

[Verse 2]
Am                       Bb                        F
Know that I was first to say, "I love you, babe"
         Am                       Bb                   F
Moved my things to your apartment down on 2nd Street
  Am            Bb               F 
I thought I'd cleaned the slate
Am                   Bb                 F
But I guess I didn't clean it all away

[Chorus]
                 Bb  C         Dm       F
Thought I was ready, ready for someone else

Thought I was rock steady, that I didn't need no help
          Bb                          C     Dm                    
But every time I get ahead of myself, every time I get ahead of my
