(Original Key: G#)


Intro:

G C, Em G/B C G, Am7 D G (x2)

   G  D/F# Em   D   C  C/B Am7      D
Uh-huh, huh, huh, huh,  let me tell ya now.
Em G/B  C  G Am7    D   G
  Uh-huh, (ooh, ooh, ooh).

Verse 1:

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.

Chorus 1:

G  D/F#    Em      D       C     C/B   Am7              D
 Oh baby, give me one more chance,    (show you that I love you),
Em     G/B  C     G  Am7   D G
 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.

Verse 2:

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;

Chorus 2:

 Oh baby, all I need is one more chance, (show you that I love you),
Em     G/B  C     G  Am7   D G
 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      G     D/F#    Em  D
But now since I see you in his arms...

Break:

G D/F#, Em D (x3)

G  D/F#       Em       D
 (A boo boo, boo boo),
G  D/F#       Em       D
 (A boo boo, boo boo), all I want,

 Spare me of the cost; give back what I lost.

 Oh baby  I need one more chance ha, I tell ya that I love you,

 Baby, (ah), baby, (ah), baby, (ah), (I want you back)...
