 (Original Key: G)
 Uh-huh, huh, huh, huh,  let me tell  ya now.
 Uh-huh, (ooh, ooh, ooh).
 When I had you to myself, I didn't  want you around;
 Those pretty faces always made  you, stand  out in  a crowd.
 Then someone  picked you from the bunch; one glance  was all it took;
 Now it's much  too late  for me,  to take  a second look.
 Oh baby, give  me one  more chance,  (show  you that I love  you),
 Won't you please let me,  (back  in your heart)?
 Oh darlin', I  was blind  to let  you go,  (let  you go, baby),
 But now since I see you in  his arms...
 (I  want you back), ooh I do now,
 (I want you back), ooh, ooh baby.
 (I want you back), yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
 (I want you back), hey, hey, now, now.
 Tryin' to live without your love, is one  long sleepless night,
 Let me show  you girl,  that I  know wrong  from right.
 Every street you walk on, I leave tear  stains on the ground,
 Follow-ing  the girl,  I didn't even want  a-round.  Let me tell you now;
 Oh baby, all  I need  is one  more chance,  (show  you that I love  you),
 Won't you please let me,  (back  in your heart)?
 Oh darlin', I  was blind  to let  you go,  (let  you go, baby),
 But now since I see  you in  his arms...
 (A boo  boo, boo  boo),
 (A boo  boo, boo  boo),  all I want,
 (A boo  boo, boo  boo),  all I need.
 (A boo  boo, boo  boo),  all I want,
 (A boo  boo, boo  boo),  all I need...
(Oh...  just one  more chance,
 To show  you that I love  you).
 Baby, (baby), baby, (baby), baby,  (baby),  (I want you back).
 For-get  what happened then, let me live again.
 Oh baby, I  was blind  to let  you go,
 But now since I see you in  his arms,  (I want you back).
 Spare me of the cost; give back what I lost.
 Oh baby I  need one  more chance ha,  I tell  ya that I love  you,
 Baby, (ah), baby,  (ah), baby,  (ah),  (I want you back)...
