Intro:

Am G Am G Am G Am G

Am               G
Got to find me a way
Am                 G
To take me back to yesterday.
F         C             E7 
How can I ever hope to forget you?

Am               G
Won't you show me a place
Am               G
Where I can hide my lonely face?
F                       C                E7 
I know you're going to break my heart if I let you.

Why does love got to be so sad?

Am               G
Like a moth to a flame,
Am               G
Like a song without a name,
F           C                  E7 
I've never been the same since I met you.

Am               G
Like a bird on the wing,
Am               G
I've got a brand new song to sing,
F        C                 E7 
I can't keep from singing about you.

Chorus

Solo (over Verse)

Am               G
I'm beginning to see
Am               G
What a fool you've made of me.
F                C                   E7 
I might have to break the law when I find you.

Am           G
Stop running away;
Am                 G
I've got a better game to play,
F           C                  E7 
You know I can't go on living without you.
