INTRO:
[A] [D] [F#m] [D] [Bm7] [A] :
[x2]
[A] Uh-huh, huh, huh,
[D] huh
Let me tell ya now
[F#m] [D] [Bm7] [A]
VERSE 1:
[A] When I had you to myself, I
[D] didn't want you around
Those
[F#m] pretty faces
[D] always made you
[Bm7] stand out in a
[A] crowd
But
[A] someone picked you from the bunch, one
[D] glance was all it took
[F#m] Now it's much too
[D] late for me to take a
[Bm7] second look a-
[A]-round
CHORUS:
[A] Oh baby give me one more
[D] chance
(show you that I love you)
[F#m] Won't you
[D] please
[Bm7] let me
[A] (back in your heart)
[A] Oh darlin' I was glad to let you
[D] go
(let you go baby)
[F#m] But now
[D] since I
[Bm7] see you
[A] in his arms
(I want you back)
INTERLUDE:
[A] Yes I do now
(I want you back)
[A] Ooh ooh baby
(I want you back)
[A] Ya ya ya ya
(I want you back)
[A] Na na na na
VERSE 2:
[A] Tryin' to live without your love, is
[D] one long sleepless night
[F#m] Let me show you
[D] girl, that I
[Bm7] know wrong from
[A] right
[A] Every street you walk on, I leave
[D] tearstains on the ground
[F#m] Following the
[D] girl, I didn't
[Bm7] even want a-
[A]-round
REPEAT CHORUS: [x2]
