        Working my way back to you, babe
                C  F    C  E7/B Am
        With a burnin' love inside
                   Dm7                  G7/B
        Yeah, I'm workin' my way back to you, babe
                 C  F C   E7/B  Am
        And the happiness that died
           D7         G  [keyboard riff]
        I let it get away
                              [keyboard riff]
        Been payin' every day

Verse 1-

         G                  D7/F#
        When you were so in love with me
        C                    D
        I played around like I was free
        G                           D7/F#
        Thought I could have my cake    and eat it too
        C                     D
        But how I cried over losin' you
                C             Cm
        See me cryin' now, but I ain't about to go
         G                    Gdim
        Livin' my life without you
            G  C   G  C    G    C   G   C
        For every day   I made you cry
            G  C     G      C      G7       C  G
        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]-

        Fm7                   Bb7/D
        Working my way back to you, babe
               Eb  Ab   Eb G7/D  Cm
        With a burnin' love inside
                  Fm7                   Bb7/D
        Yeah, I'm workin' my way back to you, babe
                Eb Ab Eb  G7/D  Cm
        And the happiness that died, oh how I cried
