G                C 
Baby, come home, something's gone wrong 
    G           Am      D 
And daddy needs company 
G                      C 
Deep in the night when nothing feels right 
G          D       Bb 
Baby, come home to me 

You were my queen, a little fool for a king 
In the reign of misery 
All this time has gone by, dry these tears in my eyes 
    G                      D  C G   Gm  Cm 
I'm trying to smile at the memory... 

Gm             Cm       Gm   D7         Gm 
I'll get by somehow     come back  come back 

Gm                 Gm7 Gm              Gm7 
If you could trust me, Try to believe me 
Gm                      Gm7 
And listen to me when I say 
When I say that love Is a burning fire 
And it will not fade away, no it will not fade away 

Some people pray most every day 
Some people wait and see 
But deep in the night when nearly nothing's going right 
                  G 
You can hear them crying 
           C 
Baby, come home... 
G         C                G 
Baby come home you've been gone so long 
      C 
And I miss you still 
            G                        C 
You say you won't be back but I hope you will 
G          D7      G 
Baby, come home to me
