Intro:  Am  C  Dm  Am  Am  E

Verse 1:
Am      C              Dm         Am
All the time you were burning my letters
Am            C           E
You were only acting the part
Am         C                Dm           Am
You think without me you'll get on much better
Am                 C              Am
But you don't even know your own heart

chorus:
C              Am                    F
Come home darling, come home quickly
C             Am             F
Come home darling, all is forgiven
    Dm
So come home quickly

Bridge: Am  C  Dm   Am  Am  C  Am C Dm Am Am 

Verse 2:
Am        C          Dm        Am
I treated you as if you were a princess
Am          C         E
You treated me like a cop
Am         C             Dm                    Am
I gave you boundaries to save you from certain death
Am               E         Am
Dangling from the end of a rope

(Chorus)

Bridge:
Dm               Am
But you're still playing
       F          G      C
For a love you'll never find
              Am            F 
Outside these arms of mine

Verse 3:
Am        C        Dm           Am
The whole town is one step behind you
Am       C           E
With the hangman on call
Am            C                Dm                 Am
They've got a judge and you're convicted without a plea
Am                E         Am
Darling they will listen to me  (repeat 2 more times)
