Capo  1
   
Key: G Bm G Bm7 Am7 
 
   G  
Suppose I called you up tonight,  
    Bm  
And told you that I loved you,  
    C                 D               G9  
And suppose I said "I wanna come back home."  
    C                                   G       Bm         Em  
And suppose I cried and said "I think I finally learned my lesson  
    A                                 D  
And I'm tired of spending all my time alone.  
 
     G                               Bm  
If I told you that I realized you're all I ever wanted  
         C             D         G  
And it's killing me to be so far away.  
          C                                 G        Bm    Em  
Would you tell me that you loved me too and would we cry together?  
   A                                D  
Or would you simply laugh at me and say:  
 
   G                 Bm       C  
"I told you so, oh I told you so.  
  Am                                       D  
I told you someday you would come crawling back   
                           G      D  
and asking me to take you in  
 
  G                    Bm     C  
I told you so, but you had to go,  
      Am                              D                           G  
Now I found somebody new and you will never break my heart in two again."  
 
 
*The rest of the song uses the same chord progression as above...*
