Em                D
In your book of broken hearts
Am
You had my name now the story starts
Em                  D            Am
We'll never be the same again I know
Em               D
I'm a victim of circumstance
Am
I'm the one that got the second chance
Em                D                 Am
One chance that's all I need, and I won't let go

D
Now you've got to understand I'm ready
Em
I won't be denied
      C                    D
This lonely heart must be satisfied

Chorus:
G/B              C
You lie waiting far across the sea
Am                 D
Wild horses could never stop me
G/B                  C
The highest mountain ain't high enough
D
I'm coming back, gonna take you prisoner of love
G/B                          C
Calling all dreamers, every heart broken fool
Em                     D
Doing what I can but, love is cruel
G/B                   C
The highest mountain ain't high enough
Am                      D                   Em
I won't give up, gonna take you prisoner of love

You took the magic of the silver screen
You've got the look, that dreams are made of
I'll do anything to make my dreams come true
Now turn this city upside down
I comb the streets of every lonely town
I'll never rest, I'm a man possessed
I need love from you

I know you've got it there and I want it
I won't be denied
Your lonely heart will be satisfied

Chorus:
You lie waiting far across the sea
Wild horses could never stop me
The highest mountain ain't high enough
I'm coming back, gonna take you prisoner of love
Calling all dreamers, every heart broken fool
Doing what I can but love is cruel
The highest mountain ain't high enough
I won't give up, gonna take you prisoner of love

Calling all dreamers, every heart broken fool
Doing what I can but love is cruel
The highest mountain ain't high enough
I'm coming back, gonna take you prisoner of love

Baby, I'll be sailing far across the sea
Wild horses could never stop me
The highest mountain ain't high enough
I won't give up, gonna take you prisoner of love
I'm coming back gonna take you prisoner of love
I'm coming back, I'm coming back
I won't give up, gonna take you prisoner of love
I get to your love
I'm coming back, gonna take you prisoner of love
Take you prisioner of love
I won't give up, I won't give up,
gonna take you prisoner of love
I'm coming back, gonna take you prisoner of love
