[x2]
[Ab] Uh-huh, huh, huh,
[Db] huh
Let me tell ya now
[Fm] [Db] [Bbm7] [Ab]
VERSE 1:
[Ab] When I had you to myself, I
[Db] didn't want you around
Those
[Fm] pretty faces
[Db] always made you
[Bbm7] stand out in a
[Ab] crowd
But
[Ab] someone picked you from the bunch, one
[Db] glance was all it took
[Fm] Now it's much too
[Db] late for me to take a
[Bbm7] second look a-
[Ab]-round
CHORUS:
[Ab] Oh baby give me one more
[Db] chance
(show you that I love you)
[Fm] Won't you
[Db] please
[Bbm7] let me
[Ab] (back in your heart)
[Ab] Oh darlin' I was glad to let you
[Db] go
(let you go baby)
[Fm] But now
[Db] since I
[Bbm7] see you
[Ab] in his arms
(I want you back)
INTERLUDE:
[Ab] Yes I do now
(I want you back)
[Ab] Ooh ooh baby
(I want you back)
[Ab] Ya ya ya ya
(I want you back)
[Ab] Na na na na
VERSE 2:
[Ab] Tryin' to live without your love, is
[Db] one long sleepless night
[Fm] Let me show you
[Db] girl, that I
[Bbm7] know wrong from
[Ab] right
[Ab] Every street you walk on, I leave
[Db] tearstains on the ground
[Fm] Following the
[Db] girl, I didn't
[Bbm7] even want a-
[Ab]-round
REPEAT CHORUS: [x2]
