verse 1 

D#                  F                         
I wrote the book on self preservation 
D#                            F         
And I'm a firm believer in my piece of mind 
Am                      Bb 
   But lately I've been looking back  
             Am          Gm 
a little too much of the time 
        Bb          Gm 
And you know what I see  
          F                   Am   
that I'm losing control of me 

verse 2 

D#              F            C   F 
  I took a good look at the situation 
D#                             C         F 
And I'm committed now though I know it's wrong 
Am                      Bb 
'cause when it comes to lovin' you  
             Am           Gm 
I never stop singin' that song 
              Bb 
I'm tryin' to say  
        F   C                       C7 
I can't let common sense get in the way  


                     Bb 
'cause I'm makin' my comeback  
   Am                     Dm 
by going straight back to you 
                Bb                      ?                   F 
It's gonna' get rough when the same old stuff starts flyin' again 
              Bb 
I'm makin' my comeback  
       Am            Dm 
well I made my first debut 
      Gm 
'cause I wanna' be a star  
C                                        F     
I just wanna' be a star like you made me then

verse 3 

F                  G        
There is no joy in self destruction 
F                                 G          
I did better off leavin' the past alone 
Bm                      C 
The dirty dishes keep a tellin' me  
            Bm          Am   
I'm no sure thing on my own 
         C         Am   D 
But it's better to be   unhappy in your company  


                 C 
So I'm makin' my comeback  
        Bm                     Em 
girl by goin' straight back to you 
                 C                      D                   G 
It's gonna' get rough when the same old stuff starts flying again 
                   C  
Girl I'm makin' my comeback  
      Bm             Em

I just wanna' be a star like you made me then
