CAPO: 1st Fret
 
 
INTRO: G  C  G
          
Well, I've come to know the look on your face
 
When you're lying about where you've been
   C            G
Or how much you spent
 
                                  
I know when you will raise your fingers to your mouth
                       C
As if to wipe away the shame
                                 G
It's not a game, I know you feel bad
 
 
CHORUS:
       D             C
If you ask for my forgiveness
       D                    C 
If you call my name, I will come home
       D          C            Cmaj7    G
If you ask for my love, I will give you some
 
 
                     
Someday I know you will understand
 
Someday you'll finally realize
            C            G
What you're doing to yourself
 
 
CHORUS:
       D             C
If you ask for my forgiveness
       D                     C 
If you call my name, I will come home
       D          C            Cmaj7    G    ~ ~ Em
If you ask for my love, I will give you some
 
 
BRIDGE:
                           C
We've been dancing to that same old song
D              G    ~ ~ Em
Over and over again
                C
I wanna be your lover
        D               G     D   G
I don't want to be your policeman
 
 
 
So tonight when you finally make your way back to our door
             C
I'll let you sleep it off
                       G
Like I did the night before
 
 
CHORUS:
         D             C
When you ask for my forgiveness
         D                    C 
When you call my name, I will come
         D          C            Cmaj7    G
When you ask for my love, I will give you some
 
 
 
In the morning I will get you up
                                       C
And I will smile just when you want me to
           N.C.
'Cause I am all you have
