Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

Keyboard arr. for guitar:

Chorus

Working my way back to you, babe

With a burnin' love inside

Yeah, I'm workin' my way back to you, babe

And the happiness that died

[keyboard riff]

I let it get away

[keyboard riff]

Been payin' every day

Verse 1

When you were so in love with me

I played around like I was free

Thought I could have my cake and eat it too

But how I cried over losin' you

See me cryin' now, but I ain't about to go

Livin' my life without you

For every day I made you cry

I'm payin', girl, 'til the day that I die

[repeat chorus]

Verse 2

I used to love to make you cry

It made me feel like a man inside

But if I'd been a man in reality

You'd still be here, babe, lovin' me

Now the nights are long and lonely

And I ain't through strugglin', I just miss you so

And you're too proud you won't give in

But when I think about all I can win

[repeat chorus; replace last measure of last keyboard riff with Bb7]

Coda [repeat to fade]:

Working my way back to you, babe

With a burnin' love inside

Yeah, I'm workin' my way back to you, babe

And the happiness that died, oh how I cried
