[Verse 1]
[Em]Not [D]long[Em][D][Em]
ago, [D]I t[Em]ook a very,
very lovely woman [D]to be my [Em]wife.[D]
I promise [Em]to love, cherish,
[C]and be tru[D]e to her for the rest of my lif[Em]e.[D]
[Em]Oh I guess we may have been married for ma[C]ybe six
months [D]when another woman came [Em]in to my
[D]life.
Oh, she [Em]made me believe that
she was so much in love [D]with me
Till you could [Em]drive a greyhound bus through her
nose and she would never feel [D]it[Em]
She made me believe that the [D]sun
rose and set where I walked at
An[Em]d she could never
get enough of [D]me
And like a [Em]fool, I walked out on my [D]wife
[Em]Oh, but that was when
the times [D]were good
And I had hit records
[Em]Big crowds were coming to see me
[D]And everybody was trying
to get my [G]autograph
[Em]As s[D]oon as the hit
[Em]re cords were gone
And the crowds [D]were gone
Then she was [Em]gone[D]
I would sometime call [Em]her house and I'd hear her in the
background tell [D]somebody to tell that fool [Em]I'm not h[D]ere
So the other [Em]day I decided I'd call my wife
and ask [D]her could I come back home
[Em]But I thought before I asked her could I come home[D],
I'd tell her what I had [Em]learned, and
this is what I [D]told her.
[Em]Like a fool, [Am]I threw your lo[Em]ve away.
Like [D]a fool, I walked [Em]out on you that day I [G]was blind,
[B]I couldn't[Em] see your love was[C]
Let's turn [Em]back time, baby,
be[B]cause I've [Em]been wrong too [Am]long
[B]I've bee[Em]n wrong too long
In [D]your arms is where I [Em]belong
I have changed my ways,
believe [B]what I say
I've been [Em]wrong, wrong,
wrong, [Am]too long[B][Em]
[D]Yeah[Em][D]
[Em]I found ou[Am]t
A lot of things [Em]I didn't know
I [D]found out
That I [Em]really, really, really do need you so
Can you [G]forgive[B]
A [Em]fool that's been so [C]wrong
This time [Em]I'll do it the right way, baby
[B]Cause I've been [Em]wrong too long
[Am]Oh b[B]aby, I've been w[Em]rong too long
In your [D]arms is where I belong
[Em]I have changed my ways
Believe what I say
[B]I've been wro[Em]ng, wrong,
wrong too [Am]long[B][Em]
Well for a long time
[D]She didn't say a wor[Em]d
And after a while I could hear the
tears [D]in her voice
When she spoke through the re[Em]ceiver
She said,
Clarence, if you mean [D]what you said
Tell me [Em]again
And this is what I [D]said
I've been [Em]wrong too long
I wanna come back home
In [D]your eyes, it's where I belong
[Em]I wanna come back home
I have changed my ways,
believe [B]what I say
I've been [Em]wrong, wrong, wrong,
wrong, wrong too [Am]long
[B]I've been [Em]wrong, wrong,
wrong, too long
Wanna come back home
In your [D]eyes, that's where I belong
[Em]Wanna come back home
I have changed my ways,
believe [B]what I say
I've been [Em]long, yes I have, [Am]I've been long, oh [Em]yeah,
I've been long, I've been long, too long, long, too long
I wanna come back home, in your [D]arms,
that's why I've been long, [Em]I wanna come back home
