[Intro]

Heh, not again
Oh, this ain't supposed to happen to me

[Break]

A             B                  
Keep rockin', and keep knockin',
E
whether you Louis Vuitton it up or Reebokin'
A                                             B 
You see the hate that they're servin' on a platter,
           C#m
so what we gon' have dessert or disaster?

I never thought I'd be in love like this
A                               B               C#m
When I look at you my mind goes on a trip
 A                              B                        E
Then you came in, and knocked me on my face
                           A       B                                 C#m
Feels like I'm in a race, but I already won first place

A                         B                                         E
I never thought I'd fall for you as hard as I did

You got me thinkin' 'bout our life our house and kids, yeah
A                       B               E
Every mornin' I look at you and smile
                                     A B                                    
'Cause boy you came around
                            C#m
and you knocked me down, knocked me down

[Chorus]

Sometimes love comes around

(love comes around love comes around)
                           A                             B 
And it knocks you down just get back up
                                   C#m
when it knocks you down (knocks you down)
                        A   B              E
Sometimes love comes around (love comes around)       
                            A                              B 
And it knocks you down just get back up
                                  C#m
when it knocks you down (knocks you down)

[Verse 2]

A                         B                   E
I never thought I'd, hear myself say 
                 A                                  B 
Ya'll gon' head, I think I'm gonna kick it
                      C#m
wit my girl today (kick it wit my girl today) 
               A                                              
I used to be commander and chief of
 B                                   E
my pimp ship flyin' high (flyin' high)
                       A                                
Til I met this pretty little missile
B                               C#m
that shot me out the sky (oh, shot me out the sky)

                                      A 
Hate to know now I'm crashing,
                                B                      
don't know how it happened
                      E
but I know it feels so damn good
                         A 
Said if I could back,
                                B 
and make it happen faster
                   C#m
don't you know I would baby if I could
                 A                                  B
Miss Independent, ohh, to the fullest,
                             E
the load never too much she helpin' me pull it
                   A                                   B 
She shot the bullet that ended that life
                                 C#m
I swear to you the pimp in me just died tonight girl

[Kembali ke Chorus]

[Verse 3]

A                                B 
Tell me now can you make it past
                  E
your caspers so we can finally fly off into NASA
A                                 B 
You was always the cheerleader of my dreams
        C#m
that seem to only date the head of football teams
A                                              B
And I was the class clown that, always kept you laughin'
E
We were never meant to be baby we just happen
A                           B 
So please, don't mess up the trick,
C#m
hey young world, I'm the new Slick Rick
A                      
They say I move too quick,
                    B
but we can't let this moment pass us
E
Let the hourglass pass right into ashes
A                                   B
Let the wind blow the ash right before my glasses
C#m
So I wrote this love letter right before my classes
A 
How could a goddess ask,
B                                             E
someone that's only average for advice,

OMG, you listen to that bitch?
A                  B  
Whoa, it's me, baby this is tragic
C#m
'cause we had it, we was magic
A               B                      
I was flyin', now I'm crashin',
E
this is bad, real bad, Michael Jackson
A                             B 
Now I'm mad, real mad, Joe Jackson,
C#m
you should leave your boyfriend now,

I'mma ask him

[Verse 4]

                                   A 
So you gotta take the good,
                  B
the bad, happy and the sad
                  E
Or will you bring the better future then I had in the past
A                                      B
'Cause I don't want to make the same mistakes I did
C#m
I don't wanna fall back on my face again
A         B               E
Woah, woah, I'll admit it,

I was scared to answer loves call
A          B                   C#m
Woah, woah, and if it hits,

better make it worth the fall (when it comes around)

[Kembali ke Chorus]

[Outro]

A                                            B
Won’t see it coming when it happens
E           
But when it happens, you’re gonna feel it,
                       A
let me tell you now
B                                            C#m
You see when love comes knocks you down
A                                                   B
Won’t see it coming when it happens
E 
But when it happens you’re gonna feel it,
                        A
let me tell you now
B                                         C#m
You see when love knocks you down
