[D] [C] [Em]
[F]
[C] Walked [Em] past your apartment this morning,
[F] I could see you standing by the window, [C] picking
out your hair.
[Em] And while I stood there, I thought to myself, [F] that sweet [Dm] chocolate lady
used to be mine.
[C] And now here I stand, [Em]
on the outside, [F] looking in,
[Dm] [C] wishing and hoping
[Em] for something that I'd already [F] had, [Gm] and didn't realize what I had when [F] I had.
[Em] It was something
very special, [F] the kind of love that truly comes along just [Dm] once in a [C] lifetime.
[Em] I realize
now that you have your own [F] desires, aspirations in life,
[C] and I can think of a lot of things
I'd do differently if [Em]
I only had the chance.
[F] [C]
[Am] I used to believe in [E] what my friends would
always [C] say, only time will soon be coming [F#] when I want you back to [F] stay.
[Em] Served me right
to [F] feel this [Em] [F] heartache, but when I realize, [Em] I really can't be [Dm] mad.
[Em] [F] Cause I had all the
[Em] love I could ever need, [Dm] didn't realize [A] what I had.
But [Em] I found out, I can't stay away,
I just can't stay away [C] from you.
No [F] matter [Dm] what I try to [C] do, I just can't [Em] stay away [C] from
[Dm] you.
No, [F] no.
A woman likes to [Em] know that [F] she's [C] appreciated.
[F] Love and [Em] trust are surely [F] both
[Em] related.
[F] And sometimes [Em] emotion has a way of [Dm] hiding itself.
Make it clear there's nothing
left.
[C] I [Em] just can't stay away [C] from you.
[F] No matter [C] what I try to do, I [G] just [Em] can't stay

And now in
[F] You [G] came with tender [F] love and [G] care [F] And that's why I [Em] know
I [A] [Dm] just can't let you go nowhere [G]
And [F] sometimes at night
[Em] Sometimes at night when I [Dm] think about [Em] it [F] It wakes me [Em] up
And then it [Dm] turns me [Em] [F] around You tear me up [Em] inside
And I [A] think [F] about it I'll let you get away
When [G] we should be [F] getting down [Em] I know it's my own [F] fault
I'm [Em] going through this [F] change But I want you [Em] to
