Back in my arms again

C F C F

1. All day long I hear my telephone ring,

C F C - F

friends calling, giving their advice.

C F C F

From the boy I love, I should break away,

C F C

'cause heartaches he'll bring one day.

F G Em Am

I lost him once through friends’ advice, but it's not gonna happen twice,

F G Em Am

'cause all advice ever's gotten me, was many long and sleepless nights.

F - C F C - F - C F C - F

Ooh! But now he's back in my arms again, right by my side.

I got him back in my arms again, so satisfied. Ooh!

It's his love that makes me strong,
