Chorus:
Dm7 G7&B
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]:

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
