Verse 1
Dm                   Bb9?
Take me back to the place where I
F                        Bb9
Loved that girl for all time
Dm                  Bb9
Why must life just take away
F                          Bb9
Every good thing one at a time

Chorus
Bb9
I want it back
Well yes I want it back
       Dm
Yes I want you back
Please give it me back
          Bb9
'Cause I want your love

Verse 2
How can I not even cry?
For such a big thing in my life
The pain it takes the part of me
Turn around and say goodbye

Chorus
Dm
How did you do it females?
      C
It's always you do it angels
     G                    Bb9
You always keep me on the run
Dm
So how did you do it angels?
         C
Always you do it females
      G                   Bb9
You always keep me on the run

(instrumental)

I want it back
Well yes I want it back
Yes I want you back
Please give it me back
'Cause I want your love
But I can't let myself love you (stay on Bb9)

end on Dm
