Lyrics

Ev ’ry bod y knows

that I was such a fool

to ev er let go of you;

It’s but, ba by, I was wrong.

just And yeah, I know I said,

“We’d be bet ter off a lone;

it was time that we moved on.”

I know I broke your heart; I did n’t mean to break be your heart.

But, ba by, here I am,

bang in’ on (a) your front (C#)door,

my pride spilled on the floor.

My hands and knees are bruised, and now I’m crawl ing back to you,

beg ging for a sec ond (C#)chance.

Are you gon na let me (A)in?

I was run ning from the truth, and now I’m crawl ing back to you.

I know you’re in there; and now I’m crawl ing back to you.

If you could see these tears I’m cry ing, touch these hands that can’t stop shak ing, hear my heart that’s (A)bare ly beat ing,

you would see a dif f’rent man.

But ba by, here I am,

bang in’ on (a) your front (C#)door,

my pride spilled on the floor.

My hands and knees are bruised,

and I’m crawl ing back to you,

beg ging for a sec ond (C#)chance.

Are you gon na let me (A)in?

I was run ning from the truth,

now I’m crawl ing back to you,

bang in’ on (a) your front (C#)door,

my pride spilled on the floor.

I was run ning from the truth,

now I’m crawl ing back to you,

Now I’m crawl ing back to you.

(E)(Crawl ing back to you.) (Crawl ing back to you.) ing back to you.)
