  D                    C#m7
   Keep on blamin' myself
              F#m7
   I should have eaten my pride
  D                   C#m7
   How can I convince you
           F#m7
   Is it a matter of time?
  D                      C#m7
   Many times I've hurt you
            F#m7               D
   With your foolish ways, oh girl
                        C#m7       F#m7

   D                              C#m7          F#m7
   Cold summer nights since you walked out that door
   D                        C#m7       F#m7
   Cold summer nights, ooh, here on my own
    Bm                              E  (break)
   I miss you babe, but I need you here

   Rocked my world, wanna touch you and kiss you
  D                                     C#m7
   It's my fault, I never called you at home
                                F#m7
   I'm on the phone wishing you could call, I'm all alone
  D

   Come back to me, I hope you understand

   Kiss and make up 'cause you know I can't stand
