Olivia Rodrigo - 1 step forward, 3 steps back: chords

                    D        D/A  Gmaj7
Called you on the phone today
                 D          D/A Gmaj7
Just to ask you how you were
                     D      D/A Gmaj7
All I did was speak normally
                          D   D/A Gmaj7
Somehow I still struck a nerve
                             D        D/A Gmaj7
You got me fucked up in the head, boy
                 D      D/A    Gmaj7
Never doubted myself so much
                        D       D/A  Gmaj7
Like am I pretty, am I fun, boy
                        D          D/A         Gmaj7
I hate that I give you power over that kind of stuff

Chorus:
                D         F#m         Gmaj7       D
Cuz it's always one step forward and three steps back
         D            F#m          Gmaj7    D
I'm the love of your life until I make you mad
            D         F#m        Gmaj7        D
It's always one step forward and three steps back
        D                F#m             Gmaj7        D
Do you love me, want me, hate me, boy, I don't understand
      Gmaj7        D
No, I don't understand

And maybe in some masochistic way
I kind of find it all exciting
Like, which lover will I get today?
Will you walk me to the door or send me home crying?

Chorus:
It's one step forward and three steps back
I'm the love of your life until I make you mad
It's always one step forward and three steps back
Do you love me, want me, hate me?
Boy, I don't understand

          D        F#m        Gmaj7           D
No, it's back and forth did I say something wrong
      D         F#m        Gmaj7      D
It's back and forth going over everything I said
      D        F#m        Gmaj7          D
It's back and forth did I do something wrong
      D         F#m        Gmaj7       D
It's back and forth maybe this is all your fault instead

Chorus:
It's one step forward and three steps back
And I'd leave you, but the rollercoaster's all I've ever had
Yeah, it's one step forward and three steps back
Do you love me, want me, hate me?
Boy, I don't understand
No, I don't understand
