Dm
I asked my father
Am
I said, "Father, change my name
Dm
The one I'm using now it's covered up
Am
With fear and filth and cowardice and shame."
[Chorus]
F
Yes and lover, lover, lover, lover, lover, lover, lover
C
Come back to me
F
Yes and lover, lover, lover, lover, lover, lover, lover
C
Come back to me
[Verse 2]
Dm
He said, "I locked you in this body
Am
I meant it as a kind of trial
Dm
You can use it for a weapon
Am
Or to make some woman smile."
[Chorus]
F
Yeah and lover, lover, lover, lover, lover, lover, lover
C
Come back to me
F
Yes and lover, lover, lover, lover, lover, lover, lover
C
Come back to me
[Verse 3]
Dm
"Then let me start again," I cried
Am
"Please let me start again
Dm
I want a face that's fair this time
Am
I want a spirit that is calm."
[Chorus]
F
Yes and lover, lover, lover, lover, lover, lover, lover
C
Come back to me
F
Yes and lover, lover, lover, lover, lover, lover, lover
C
Come back to me
[Verse 4]
Dm
"I never turned aside," he said
Am
"I never walked away
Dm
It was you who built the temple
Am
It was you who covered up my face."
[Chorus]
F
Yes and lover, lover, lover, lover, lover, lover, lover
C
Come back to me
F
Yes and lover, lover, lover, lover, lover, lover, lover
C
Come back to me
[Verse 5]
Dm
"And may the spirit of this song
Am
May it rise up pure and free
Dm
May it be a shield for you
Am
A shield against the enemy."
[Chorus]

Yes and lover, lover, lover, lover, lover, lover, lover
C
Come back to me

Yes and lover, lover, lover, lover, lover, lover, lover
