     This is probably the best song Spice Girls have ever done. I'm one
of 
     those sad bastards who actually likes the Spice Girls (and admits
it) 
     so I decided to work it out. It's fairly simple in its chord 
     progressions, and therefore quite easy to interpret in a way that 
     suits you best.

        Last time that we had this conversation 
        G                         D 
        I decided we should be friends
        Bm             E
        But now we're going 'round in circles
                 G                       D
        Tell me will this deja-vu never end?
     
        And now you tell me that you've fallen in love 
        Well I never ever thought that would be
        This time you gotta take it easy
        Throwing far too much emotions at me

        I gotta make you understand
     
     
        chorus:
        Bm             E
        I'm giving you everything

        And all that I want from you

        If you put two and two together
        You will see what our friendship is four 
        If you can't work this equation
        Then I guess I'll have to show you the door
     
     
        Bridge: (repeat riff B)
        There is no need to say you love me
        It would be better left unsaid
