#1 in 1965. 

#1. 
C       F              C         F 
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. 

#2. 
F                       G 
I lost him once through friend's advice, 
         Em               Am 
But it's not gonna happen twice. 
F                         G 
Cause all advice has ever got me, 
         Em                 Am 
Was many long and sleepless nights. 

Chorus: 
F    C            F          C         F C 
Ooh! But now he's back in my arms again. 
C     F     C   F 
Right by my side. 
C         F          C         F C    F    C   F  
I got him back in my arms again....so satisfied. 

#3. 
     C        F               C       F 
It's easy for friends to say, let him go. 
    C               F         C  F 
But I'm the one who needs him so. 
C        F         C        F 
It's his love that makes me strong, 
    C         F        C 
without him I can't go on. 
F                      G 
This time I'll live my life at ease, 
      Em           Am 
being happy lovin' whom I please. 
F                G                     Em 
And each time we make romance, I'll be thankful 
      Am 
for a second chance. 

Chorus: 
F    C            F          C         F C 
Ooh! But now he's back in my arms again.

Right by my side. 
C         F          C         F C    F    C   F  
I got him back in my arms again....so satisfied. 

#4. 
C       F            C       F 
How can Mary tell me what to do, 
         C        F       C 
When she lost her love so true? 
    C     F         C 
And Flo...she don't know, 
F         C       F          C 
Cause the boy she loves is a Romeo. 
F                     G 
I listened once to my friend's advice, 
         Em               Am 
But it's not gonna happen twice. 
F                         G 
Cause all advice has ever got me, 
         Em                 Am 
Was many long and sleepless nights. 

Chorus:

Ooh! But now he's back in my arms again.

Right by my side.

I got him back in my arms again....so satisfied.
