Chords & Lyrics


Gb-Db-Ebm-Db-B-Ebm

   Ebm         Db           B
You came into my life so suddenly
    Db
You took me by surprise
                        Ddim
And gave your love to me
  Abm       Ddim       
But as the days went on
         Db               Cdim
The seasons started changing
  Abm           Bbm    B      Db
You said you wanted to be free

   Ebm          Db            B
And now I'm so alone and hurtin' bad
     Db
Just wishin' for the love
                   Ddim
I never really had
  Abm          Ddim
Oh girl, I need you now
         Db         Cdim
What else can I say?
  Abm              Bbm
Don't you know it's hard for me
   B             Db
To live this way?


   Gb
Tell me why
   Db/F              Ebm
You have to say goodbye
            Db              B
Did you have to tear my heart away
   Gb
Play that game
   Db/F
I love you just the same
         Ebm
Come back to me
                    Db
We could make this love
                 Gb-Db/F-Ebm
Start over again

    B               Db          B
Are you still keeping traces of our past?
   Db                  Db7       Ddim
Sad to say it didn't last, oh hoh
        Abm  Ddim  
Is there a bit of hope
   Db   Cdim
That I could depend on?
      Abm              Bbm
If you ever change your mind
        B           Db
I'll be right behind

(Repeat Chorus)

Adlib:
Db        Bb
Oh oh woh oh
          Ebm-Db/F-Gb-B-
          Db-Ddim-B-Db-Gb-Db-

(Repeat Chorus except last line)
                      Bb                 Gb-Bm-Gb-Gm-Gb
We could make this love start over again
