foreigner

“prisoner of love”

intro riff as follows :
Em C Em C
Em C
Em D C D
Em D C D

verse 1 :
Em
in your book of broken hearts
C
you had my name now the story starts
Em C
we’ll never be the same again i know

Em
i’m a victim of circumstance
C
i’m the one that got the second chance
Em Am C Em
one chance . . . that’s all i need , and i won’t let go

D
now you’ve got to understand i’m ready
Em
i won’t be denied
C D
this lonely heart must be satisfied

chorus :

G C
you lie waiting far across the sea
Em D
wild horses could never stop me
G C
the highest mountain ain’t high enough
C D G
i’m coming back , gonna take you prisoner of love

G C
calling all dreamers , every heart broken fool
Em D
doing what i can . . . but , love is cruel
G C
the highest mountain ain’t high enough
C D Em D C D
i won’t give up , gonna take you prisoner of love

Em D C D

the rest of the song follows an essentially similar pattern –

verse 2 :
you took the magic of the silver screen
you’ve got the look , that dreams are made of
i’ll do anything to make my dreams come true

now turn this city upside down
i comb the streets of every lonely town
i’ll never rest , i’m a man possessed
i need love from you

i know you’ve got it there and i want it
i won’t be denied
your lonely heart will be satisfied

chorus :
you lie waiting far across the sea
wild horses could never stop me
the highest mountain ain’t high enough
i’m coming back , gonna take you prisoner of love

calling all dreamers , every heart broken fool
doing what i can but love is cruel
the highest mountain ain’t high enough
i won’t give up , gonna take you prisoner of love

then repeat the intro riff , before the final chorus :

calling all dreamers , every heart broken fool
doing what i can but love is cruel
the highest mountain ain’t high enough
i’m coming back , gonna take you prisoner of love

baby , i’ll be sailing far across the sea
wild horses could never stop me
the highest mountain ain’t high enough
i won’t give up , gonna take you prisoner of love

Em D
C D Em
i’m coming back gonna take you prisoner of love

D
i’m coming back , i’m coming back
C D Em
i won’t give up , gonna take you prisoner of love

( and so on to fade . . . )

i get to your love
i’m coming back , gonna take you prisoner of love
take you prisioner of love
i won’t give up , i won’t give up , gonna take you prisoner of love
i’m coming back , gonna take you prisoner of love
