Words and music by Vince Clarke and Andy Bell
Intro:
[D] Ooh oh whoa [G] Ooh oh whoa
[D] [G]
It was only for a fi[D]ght
That I asked you to come in[G]
But you brought me tumblin' do[A]wn
And the walls came caving in[D]
Won't you help me dry my te[D]ars
Help me roll away the years[G]
Then perhaps I will forgive [A]you
And the hurt will disapp[D]ear
But in a fit of blind [G]arrogance
You stood u[A]p and walked away[Asus4]
[D]If you'd given me [G]half a chance
I'll be wa[A]iting for the day
For the day that you[D]
Oh [Bm]oh come [D]back to me
Come on back to me[A][G]
[D]You [Bm]oh come [D]back to me
[A] [G] [D] [G]
So forget the long goodbye[D]
You never really tried[G]
Threw the keys down on the ta[A]ble
You've got your sense of pride[D]
Then you had to tell the world[D]
Your story must be heard[G]
Slammed the door behind [A]you
Without a single word[D]
But in a fit of blind [G]arrogance
You stood u[A]p and walked away
The day that you[D]
Oh [Bm]oh come [D]back to me
Come on back to me[A][G]
[D]You [Bm] oh come [D]back to me, come on back to me[A][G]
[D]You [Bm]oh oh come [D]back to me[A][G]
[Bb]You know I never had a single thought in my head, no I
[D]Never had a single thought[Bb]
(breakdown, no chords)
Oh for the day that you[D]
Oh [Bm]oh come [D]back to me, come on back to me[A][G]
[D]You [Bm]oh oh come [D]back to me, come on back to me[A][G]
[D]You can be my lifelong friend
[Bm]You can be the light of dawn
[D]You can keep me close at hand
[A]You can keep me s[G]afe and warm
[D]I will be your fantasy
[Bm]If you come and stay with me
[D]I will try to give you all
[A]Waiting for the n[G]ight to fall
[D]You can be the light of day
[Bm]You can be my lifelong friend
[D]You can keep me close at hand
[A]Waiting for the d[G]ay to end
[D]I will be your fantasy
[Bm]If you come and stay with me
[D]I will try to give my all
[A]Waiting for the ni[G]ght to fall
