          Gm                 Am
You know, when you're in love and your lover leaves you

               Gm             
And you've got nobody, the lonely hours come over you

Am          A#m        B
You sit and wonder and think, you say:
[Verse]

Every night, and sometimes I yearn through the day

You should think about me, Say a prayer for me

F#m                                                                                         
Please, oh please baby, think about me sometime

B                                                            
Think about me, yeah, in misery

E                           
Oh, save me baby
[Bridge]
Am
As I reminisce through our joyful summer together

Am
The promises we made of a daily letter

B
Then all of a sudden everything seemed to explode

B
Now I gaze out my window down that lonesome road
[Verse]
        E                                         
Distant lover (lover, lover, lover)

C#m
How can you treat my heart so mean and cruel?

                             F#m
Didn't you know, that every moment

                      B                                                                     
That I spend with you I treasure it like it was (a) precious jewel

E                               
Oh baby (Lord, have mercy) 
[Solo] Am Am B B E [Verse]

Something I wanna say: When you left, you took all of me with you

C#m
Now Lord I wonder, do you want to hear me plead and scream

             F#m
"Please, please, oh please, baby, come back home"
