1.      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.

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 ?

2.      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 !

3. (spoken : )       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

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

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