On Bended Knee
Darlin [Eb] I [EbM7] can’t explain, Where did we[Eb7]lose our way,
Girl its [Ab7]drivin me in[Ab/Bb]sane And I [Eb]know I just need one
More chance
To [Eb7]prove my love to you, If you [Ab]come back to me, [Ab/F]I
Guarantee that
I’ll [Ab/Bb]never let you go.
(Chorus) Can we [Eb]go back to the [Db/Eb]way our love was [Ab]strong?
[Ab/F]
[Ab/Bb]Can you [Eb]tell me how a [Eb7]perfect love goes [Ab]wrong?
[Ab/F]
[Ab/Bb]Can somebody [Eb]tell me how to[Eb7] get things back the [Ab]way
They used to [Abm]be
Oh [Eb/Bb]God give [Cm]me a [Ab/F]reason I’m [Ab/Bb]down on bended
Knee.[Eb]
[Eb]So many nights I [EbM7]dream of you. Holding [Eb7]pillow tight I
Know I don’t [Ab]need to be a[Ab/Bb]lone.
When I [Eb]open up my eyes to [EbM7]face reality, Every [Eb7]moment
Without you seems like eternity
I’m [Ab]begging you, begging you [Ab/Bb]come back to me.
(chorus)
Gonna [Cm7]swallow my pride [Eb/Bb]Say I’m sorry, [Ab]Stop pointing
Fingers, [Ab/F]the blame is on me.[G]
I [Cm7]want a new life And I [G+/B]want it with you, If [Eb/Bb]you feel
The same, [Ab/F]Don’t ever [Ddim7/G]let it go.
[Cm7]You gotta believe in the [G+/B]spirit of love. It can [Eb/Bb]heal
All things. We won’t [Ab]hurt anymore.
No I [Ab/F]don’t believe our [G7]love’s termi[Cm7]nal. I’m [AbM7]down
On my knees, [A/B]begging you please, come [E]home.
(up another 1/2 step) Bb/C F
(chorus)
Wanna bulid a new life, Just you and me, Gonna make you my wife, raise
A family.
