Heh, not again

Oh, this ain't supposed to happen to me

Keep rockin', and keep knockin', whether you Louis Vuitton it up or Reebokin'

C D G

I never thought I'd be in love like this

C D Em

When I look at you my mind goes on a trip

C D G

Then you came in, and knocked me on my face

C D Em

Feels like I'm in a race, but I already won first place

C D G

I never thought I'd fall for you as hard as I did (As hard as I did, yeah)

C D Em

You got me thinkin' 'bout our life our house and kids, yeah

C D G

Every mornin' I look at you and smile

C D Em

'Cause boy you came around and you knocked me down, knocked me down

C D Em

Ya'll gon' head, I think I'm gonna kick it wit my girl today (kick it wit my girl today)

C D G

I used to be commander and chief of my pimp ship flyin' high (flyin' high)

C D Em

Til I met this pretty little missile that shot me out the sky (oh, shot me out the sky)

C D G

Hate to know now I'm crashing, don't know how it happened but I know it feels so damn good

C D Em

Said if I could back, and make it happen faster don't you know I would baby if I could

C D G

Miss Independent, ohh, to the fullest, the load never too much She helpin' me pull it

She shot the bullet that ended that life I swear to you the pimp in me just died tonight girl

C D G

Tell me now can you make it past your caspers so we can finally fly off into NASA

C D Em

You was always the cheerleader of my dreams that seem to only date the head of football teams

C D

And I was the class clown that, always kept you laughin'

G

We were never meant to be baby we just happen

C D Em

So please, don't mess up the trick, hey young world, I'm the new Slick Rick

C D

They say I move too quick, but we can't let this moment pass us

G

Let the hourglass pass right into ashes

C D

Let the wind blow the ash right before my glasses

Em

So I wrote this love letter right before my classes

C D G

How could a goddess ask, someone that's only average for advice, OMG, you listen to that bitch?

C D Em

Whoa, it's me, baby this is tragic 'cause we had it, we was magic

C D G

I was flyin', now I'm crashin', this is bad, real bad, Michael Jackson

C D Em

Now I'm mad, real mad, Joe Jackson, you should leave your boyfriend now,

I'mma ask him

C D

So you gotta take the good, the bad, happy and the sad

G

Or will you bring the better future then I had in the past

C D

'Cause I don't want to make the same mistakes I did

Em

I don't wanna fall back on my face again

C D G

Woah, woah, I'll admit it, I was scared to answer loves call

C D Em

Woah, woah, and if it hits, better make it worth the fall (when it comes around)

+
[Chorus]
x

C D G

Sometimes love comes around (love comes around love comes around)

C D Em

And it knocks you down just get back up when it knocks you down (knocks you down)

C D G

Sometimes love comes around (love comes around)

C D Em

And it knocks you down just get back up when it knocks you down (knocks you down)

Knocks you down
