Verse 1
[D] [G]
When I had you to myself, I didn't want you around;
[Bm] [D/F#] [G] [D] [Em7] [A7] [D]
Those pretty faces always made you, stand out in a crowd.
[D] [G]
Then someone picked you from the bunch; one glance was all it took;
[Bm] [D/F#] [G] [D] [Em7] [A7] [D] (WALK UP)
Now it's much too late for me, to take a second look.
Chorus 1
Oh Baby, Won’t

[D] [A/C#] [Bm] [A] [G] [G/F#] [Em7] [A]
Oh baby, give me one more chance,
[Bm] [D/F#] [G] [D] [Em7] [A]
Won't you please let me, back in your heart
[D] [A/C#] [Bm] [A] [G] [G/F#] [Em7] [A]
Oh darlin', I was blind to let you go,
[Bm] [D/F#] [G] [D] [Em] [A] [D]
Now that I’ve seen you in his arms...
Verse 2
[D] [G]
Tryin' to live without your love, is one long sleepless night,
[Bm] [D/F#] [G] [D] [Em7] [A7] [D]
Let me show you girl, that I know wrong from right.
[D] [G]
Every street you walk on, I leave tear stains on the ground,
[Bm] [D/F#] [G] [D] [Em7] [A7] [D]
Follow-ing the girl, I didn't even want a-round. Let me tell you now;
Chorus 2
[D] [A/C#] [Bm] [A] [G] [G/F#] [Em7] [A]
Oh baby, give me one more chance,
[Bm] [D/F#] [G] [D] [Em7] [A]
Won't you please let me, back in your heart
[D] [A/C#] [Bm] [A] [G] [G/F#] [Em7] [A]
Oh darlin', I was blind to let you go,
[Bm] [D/F#] [G] [D] [Em] [A] [D]
Now that I’ve seen you in his arms...
