[Intro] C - D - Em - D - C - D (2x) - G [Verse 1]
D             F#m                         D7
  Darlin I, I can't explain, where did we lose our way,

           G             A
girl, it's drivin' me insane

      D                   
And I know I just need one more chance

   F#m                           D7
to prove my love to you, if you come back to me,

                       G            A
I guarantee that I'll never let you go.
[Chorus]
        D             D7              G            A
Can we go back to the days our love was strong ?

        D             D7              G            A
Can you tell me how a perfect love goes wrong?

             D              D7                  G                Gm
Can somebody tell me how to get things back the way they used to be ?

   F#m       Bm   Em         A                        ( C )            
Oh God, give me a reason I'm down on bended knee.

D                   F#m                   D7
   So many nights I dream of you, holding my pillow tight,

             G                  A
I know that I don't need to be alone.

       D                  F#m                               
When I open up my eyes to face reality,

      D7
every moment without you seems like eternity,

    G                          A
I'm begging you, begging you : come back to me !
[Chorus]
        D             D7              G            A
Can we go back to the days our love was strong ?

        D             D7              G           A
Can you tell me how a perfect love goes wrong?

             D               D7                 G                Gm
Can somebody tell me how to get things back the way they used to be ?

   F#m       Bm   Em         A                        ( C )           
Oh God, give me a reason I'm down on bended knee.
C - D - Em - D - C - D (2x) - G [Verse 3]
  D
Baby, I'm sorry,

F#m                                    
    please forgive me for all the wrong I've done

                                D7
Please come back home girl, I know you put all your trust in me,

        G                                 A
I'm sorry, I let you down, please, forgive me !

                 Bm                A                           
(sung : ) Gonna swallow my pride, say I'm sorry,

G                          A
stop pointing fingers, the blame is on me.

   Bm                    F#m                               
I want a new life, and I want it with you,

       G              A                    Bm
if you feel the same, don't ever let it go.

                         F#m                                  
You gotta believe in the spirit of love,

       G                         F#m
it can heal all things, we won't hurt anymore.

G                      Em
No I don't believe our love's terminal,

    A
I'm down on my knees,
(song moves up half a note to capo 2nd here)
A                        D
begging you please, come home.
[Chorus]
        D             D7              G               A
Can we go back to the days our love was strong ?

        D             D7              G              A
Can you tell me how a perfect love goes wrong?

             D              D7                  G                Gm
Can somebody tell me how to get things back the way they used to be ?

   F#m       Bm   Em         A                        ( C )           
Oh God, give me a reason I'm down on bended knee.
