[Intro]
Eb Ab Eb Bb7

[Verse 1]
    Eb
  Out in the street
Cm
  Late all night long
Ab     Bb7
  While   the one that loved me
       Eb                       Bb7 Bb7sus4
  Man, she was sitting at home
 Eb
  Oh, I've been worried
G7
  I was a fool
Ab                                      Db9
  Playing the fields and running around heavy, foreign, man
D   Eb              Ab                  Eb     Bb7 Bb7sus4
  I know everybody   make a mistake sometimes

[Verse 2]
Eb
  But when I got home, oh
Cm                     N.C.
  My baby, she was gone
Bb Ab               Bb7
      And I found a letter, now
                     Eb             Bb7
  Right there on the kitchen floor,    it read:
Eb
  "I tried to wait
G7
  For you to come, honey
    Ab                               Db9
  But, like a fool you were running around, doing me wrong"
  D   Eb
  I'm sorry, I know, baby
  Ab                            Eb
  Everybody makes a mistake sometimes
Bb7        Bb7sus4
  I know I make one

[Verse 3]
Eb
  And oh, so if you are running around
Cm
  With somebody else
Ab   Bb7
  Try   to satisfy
                 Ab                         Bb7
  Man, you can't satisfy your selfish self
         Eb
  So uh, man, you gotta take heed
            G7
  Listen to every word I'm saying
               Ab                               Db9
  'Cause that  same thing, man, might happen to you one day
          D         Eb
  And you know that everybody
                   Ab                 Eb              Ab7
  Man, I know that everybody make  mistakes sometimes

[Outro]
                            Eb
  I know, because I've made mine
           Ab7
  I made a great big one
         Eb                Ab7
  Man, I made my, I made a great big one
          Eb
  I can't do it no more
                Ab7
  No, I'm never gonna do it
                Eb
  I want you to come back to me, baby
                     Ab7
  And help me if you would, baby
              Eb
  I love you, darling
              Ab7
  I love you, baby
                      Eb
  Honey, I just won't stay out in the street all night
          Ab7
  I won't   stay out in the street, baby
       Eb
  I'll just sit home with you, darling
      Ab7
  And hold your trembling hand
          Eb
  So just come back to me, baby
