I Want You Back

Dave Faulkner

[intro]
G  Em  (x2)

G                      Em
I can still recall the time 
G                       Em
She said she was always mine 
         A               G
Then she left, as people do, 
       A                    G
And forgets what we've been through

G  A  B  C#   < - all barre chords

G                        Em
It's not that she's gone away
G                          Em
It's the things I hear she has got to say
      A                 G
About me - and about my friends
     A         G             G  A  B  C#
When we've got no defence

       D                           C
That's her, I'll never believe her again
                               D
She might have deceived all my friends
                            C
I know they will see in the end
                           B
What it all means when she says (yeah!)

E            G
Ahh-ahh-ahh  Ahh-ahh-ahh
  C        A
I want you back
Ahh-ahh-ahh  Ahh-ahh-ahh
I want you back
Ahh-ahh-ahh  Ahh-ahh-ahh
I want you
She says, she says
She says, she says (yeah)

          G                      Em
G |----------------------------|----------------------|
D |-12-12-12--10--9---10p-9----|-12--10--9---10p-9----|
A |-------------------------10-|-------------------12-|
E |----------------------------|----------------------|

    G                                              Em
G |----------------------------------------------|-------12-------|
D |--------8h-9--9----10--9b---------9-----------|----12----12--9-|
A |-10h-12---------12--------12--10----12--10----|-10-------------|
E |-------------------------------------------12-|----------------|

But what's worse, she thinks it's true
But that's just her, she always was a little bit confused!
She's not worth the time I had to lose

That's her, I'll never believe her again
She might have deceived my friends
I know they'll see what it means when she says (yeah!)

Ahh-ahh-ahh  Ahh-ahh-ahh
I want you back
Ahh-ahh-ahh  Ahh-ahh-ahh
I want you back
Ahh-ahh-ahh  Ahh-ahh-ahh
I want you
She says, she says
She says, she says

She says, she says
I want you back
She says, she says
I want you and only you
She says, she says
She says, she says
