[Verse 1]
N.C.               G
Well, you said goodbye
         A                      D
And good luck in your Dear John letter
                  G
And I thought I'd die
       A                         D
'Cuz I thought we were carved in stone
               G         A                             D
And it made me cry as I walked through the clear, cold weather
    Bm              G
And then I dried my eyes
      A                 D
And I tried livin' all alone

[Verse 2]
D                      G
Well, the clouds piled high
        A                       D
And the snow didn't make things better
                    G
As the time crawled by
       A                     D
I went down through a dark ordeal
              G
Then to my surprise there blew
  A                     D
A breeze from the springtime heather
   Bm                  G
Hey  as it breathed on me
        A                       D
I could feel how my heart could heal

[Chorus]
Bm           G
Now you come back
          A            D
Just when ev'rything's better
Bm           G
Now you come back
         A             D
Just when ev'rything's great
Bm           G
Now you come back
    A             D
But I've got it together
Bm           G
Now you come back
           A          D
But it's a little too late

[Bridge]
G
Count up the seasons
D
Count up the months
A                 D
Count up the days you've been gone
  G              D
I was a grievin' fool for you once
    Em                           A
But now you've been gone for too long

[Verse 3]
                  G
And you just drop by
     A                      D
On a night with a full moon shining
                  G
And you just say "hi"
        A               D
And you ask if I'm by myself
                      G              A                      D
Well, you might think I'm still the same fool you left here pining
Bm                       G
Hey, but I'm a brand new guy
      A                        D
And I suggest you go somewhere else

[Chorus]
Bm           G
Now you come back
          A            D
Just when ev'rything's better
Bm           G
Now you come back
          A            D
Just when ev'rything's great
Bm           G
Now you come back
    A             D
But I've got it together
Bm           G
Now you come back
           A          D
But it's a little too late

[Otro]
Bm           G
Now you come back
          A            D
Just when ev'rything's better
Bm           G
Now you come back
          A            D
Just when ev'rything's great
Bm           G
Now you come back
    A             D
But I've got it together
Bm           G
Now you come back
           A          D
But it's a little too late
