                G#     A#        D# G# D#
If you want my loving - take me back

If you miss my touch little girl - take me back
                     G#    A#                   Cm Cm/A# F/A
When the dreams you lean on - are beginning to crack
              G#           Cm7     F
Open up your heart little girl and oh
A#       D# C# D#
Take me back

If you want my loving then take me back
If you're on your own little girl take me back
When the nights grow longer turning blacker than black
Open up your heart little girl and
Take me back

Chorus:
                              A#           G#        D#
Playing a part you're well prepared for, there you stand
                  A#      G#       D#
With all I ever cared for in your hand
    G7              Cm7
I'm waiting all the time
 Cm7/A#   G#                Gm
For some kind of sign from you
Cm7  Cm7/A# G#              Gm
And I'll go on and on this way
 G#              D#
Waiting for the day
     G#               D#
When I will hear you say
                A#
You'll take me back - x2

If you want my loving well take me back
If you're feeling down little girl
Then you'll take me back
When you look around you for the love that you lack
Open up your heart little girl
You got my heart little girl
Make a start little girl
And say you'll take me back
Take me back
