G              C
 When I had you to myself, I didn't want you around;
   Em   G/B  C   G    Am7    D  G
Those pretty faces always made you, stand out in a crowd.
   G                   C
Then someone picked you from the bunch; one glance was all it took;
Em    G/B    C    G   Am7   D   G
 Now it's much too late for me, to take a second look.

 Oh baby, give me one more chance,  (show you that I love you),

 Won't you please let me,  (back in your heart)'
G D/F#    Em  D    C     C/B  Am7     D
 Oh darlin', I was blind to let you go,  (let you go, baby),
  Em G/B  CG Am7 D   G
But now since I see you in his arms...

Break:

G (n.C)
 (I want you back), ooh I do now,
(I want you back), ooh, ooh baby.
(I want you back), yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
(I want you back), hey, hey, now, now.

G                  C
 Tryin' to live without your love, is one long sleepless night,
Em   G/B    C  G  Am7   D     G
 Let me show you girl, that I know wrong from right.
G                 C
 Every street you walk on, I leave tear stains on the ground,
Em   G/B   C  G    Am7  D   G
 Follow-ing the girl, I didn't even want a-round. Let me tell you now;
