Want You Back – Jackson 5



8 BARS BAND

8 BARS AD LIB.
Uh-huh… huh, huh, huh (2,3) let me tell you now…
(1,2) Uh-huh… Ooo… ooo… ooh…

VERSE 1:
When I had you to myself, I didn't want you around… Those…
Pretty faces always made you stand out in a crowd… But…
Someone picked you from the bunch, one glance was all it took
Now it's much too late for me to take a second look

CHORUS 1:
Oh baby, give me one more chance (“show you that I love you”)
Won't you please let me… back in your heart…
Oh darlin', I was blind to let you go (“let you go baby”)
But now since I see you… in his arms (4)
Yes, I do now (3,4) Ooo ooo baby (3,4)
(“…I want you back …I want you back”)
…Yeah, yeah, yeah yeah (3,4) …Na, na, na, na…
(“…I want you back …I want you back”)

VERSE 2:
Trying to live without your love is one long sleepless night
Let me show you girl… that I know wrong from right
Every street you walk on, I leave tear stains on the ground
Following the girl… I didn't even want around, let me tell ya now…
