[VERSE]
   C                Dm7add11
   Bound for trouble from the start

Fmaj7/C                                     C
   I've been walking through this old world in the dark

   C               Dm7add11
   All along right by my side

Fmaj7/C                       C
   There you were shining, my ray of light
[CHORUS]
           C                                   Dm7add11
   I sing, lover come back, lover come back to me

             Fmaj7/C                           C
   Won't you ever come back, ever come back to me

       C                                       Dm7add11
   How could I have been so foolish to let you leave?

   Fmaj7/C                             C
   Lover come back, lover come back to me
[INTERLUDE] C | Dm7add11 | Fmaj7/C | C [VERSE]
   C                            Dm7add11
   I'll never be as good as I'd like to be

   Fmaj7/C                           C
   Eternally restless, refusing to believe

                       C
   But I think that we missed our connection

               Dm7add11
   I wanted to feel your affection

Fmaj7/C           C
   Until my final days
[CHORUS]
           C                                   Dm7add11
   I sing, lover come back, lover come back to me

             Fmaj7/C                           C
   Won't you ever come back, ever come back to me

       C                                       Dm7add11
   How could I have been so foolish to let you leave?

   Fmaj7/C                             C
   Lover come back, lover come back to me
[BRIDGE]
Am                Fmaj7/C
   I am warm enough, yet I still shiver

Dm7add11               Fmaj7/C
   I am fed but still I starve

Am                     Fmaj7/C
   You know me, I am the great misgiver

Dm7add11                           Fmaj7/C
   Always waiting on the clouds to part
[CHORUS]
           C                                   Dm7add11
   I sing, lover come back, lover come back to me

             Fmaj7/C                           C
   Won't you ever come back, ever come back to me

       C                                       Dm7add11
   How could I have been so foolish to let you leave?

   I sing, lover come back, lover come back to me

             Fmaj7/C                           C
   Won't you ever come back, ever come back to me

       C                                       Dm7add11
   How could I have been so foolish to let you leave?
