Verse 3:
G
I saw you yesterday with an old friend
C D
It was the same ole' same "how have you been"
C G
Since you've been gone my world's been dark and grey

You reminded me of brighter days
C
I hoped you where comin' home to stay
D C
I was headed to church
G
I was off to drink you away
C D
I thought about you for a long time, can't seem to get you off my mind
C G
I can't understand why we're living life this way

Chorus:
C
I found your picture today, I swear I'll change my ways
D C G
I just called to say I want you, to come back home
C
I found your picture today, I swear I'll change my ways
D C G
I just called to say I want you, to come back home
D C G
I just called to say I love you, come back home




for the "bending" part:

Bend to a B and before "unbending", hit the B string (also being bent
to a D note[this is done simultaneously when you bend the B sting]) and
then "unbend" the B string.
