	  		Words and music by Vince Clarke and Andy Bell 


Intro: 
D                G     
  Ooh oh whoa      Ooh oh whoa 
D                G 

                    D 
It was only for a fight 
                           G 
That I asked you to come in 
                              A 
But you brought me tumblin' down 
                            D 
And the walls came caving in 
                           D 
Won't you help me dry my tears 
                           G 
Help me roll away the years 
                            A 
Then perhaps I will forgive you 
                        D 
And the hurt will disappear 

                      G 
But in a fit of blind arrogance 
           A                Asus4 
You stood up and walked away 
D                 G 
If you'd given me half a chance 
          A 
I'll be waiting for the day 
                    D 
For the day that you 
   Bm      D 
Oh oh come back to me 
                  A  G 
Come on back to me 
D   Bm      D 
You oh come back to me 

A  G  D  G 
                          D 
So forget the long goodbye 
                      G 
You never really tried 
                             A 
Threw the keys down on the table 
                              D 
You've got your sense of pride 
                              D 
Then you had to tell the world 
                        G 
Your story must be heard 
                        A 
Slammed the door behind you 
                     D 
Without a single word 

                      G 
But in a fit of blind arrogance 
           A 
You stood up and walked away 
                D 
The day that you  
   Bm      D 
Oh oh come back to me 
                  A  G 
Come on back to me 
D   Bm        D                             A  G 
You   oh come back to me, come on back to me 
D   Bm         D         A  G 
You oh oh come back to me 

Bb 
You know I never had a single thought in my head, no I 
D                         Bb 
Never had a single thought 

breakdown, no chords 

                       D 
Oh for the day that you  
   Bm      D                             A  G 
Oh oh come back to me, come on back to me 
D   Bm         D                             A  G 
You oh oh come back to me, come on back to me 

D 
You can be my lifelong friend 
Bm 
You can be the light of dawn 
D 
You can keep me close at hand 
A                G 
You can keep me safe and warm 

D 
I will be your fantasy 
Bm 
If you come and stay with me 
D 
I will try to give you all 
A                G 
Waiting for the night to fall 

D 
You can be the light of day 
Bm 
You can be my lifelong friend 
D 
You can keep me close at hand 
A                G 
Waiting for the day to end 

D 
I will be your fantasy 
Bm 
If you come and stay with me 
D 
I will try to give my all 
A                 G 
Waiting for the night to fall
