Jellyfish，这支来自90年代的Power Pop乐队，以其华丽的编曲和充斥力量的旋律著称。《Baby's Coming Back》无疑是他们最具代表性的作品之一。这首歌以坦诚的歌词和充斥希望的旋律，讲述了一个曾经放荡不羁的男人，在失去爱人后幡然醒悟，努力改变自己，期盼爱人回头的真挚故事。

歌曲的情感内核在于一个“悔”字。歌中男人认可了自己的毛病，并表达了强烈的悔意和重新开始的渴望。“I knew that when I saw her, that my life would move over from the fast lane”一句，道出了他最初的许诺，而之后的行为却反水了这份许诺。当他意识到自己犯下的毛病时，一切似乎都太迟了。“I've long run out of my last chances but she's on her way”一句，则充斥了焦虑和期待，他深知机会渺茫，但仍然抱有一丝希望。

• 情感表达： 在弹唱时，要充分理解歌曲的情感，将悔意、渴望和希望融入到歌声中，能力真正打动人众。

Baby's Coming Back
Chords by:  Justin Makeig  ([email protected])
C
I knew that when I saw her
that my life would move over from the fast lane
Gone would be the days of all my drinkin' and my carryin' on
But when I settled down
The party king uncrowned
this stubborn memory hadn't faded
too many dumb mistakes
and all the grief it makes
left nothin' else to be debated
D7                            F                             C          F
And if you say that you understand then your lyin'
D7                           F maj7sus2                   C maj - C sus4 - C maj
but if you figure that I'm all right now I can't deny it
Dm              G7
Baby's comin' back, Baby's comin' back
Am
so I'm on my best behavior
Dm                     G                       A min
I can't take it anymore I just woke up on the floor today
   D min/A                        G maj                       (verse riff)

I've long run out of my last chances but she's on her way
(same as first verse)
If I had a dollar for every single time I fought her I'd buy a handgun
But that couldn't shoot away the bullseye that she made on my heart
(same as first bridge)
And if I sound like a beaten man well I guess so
but on her way is the sweetest prize and I can't let go
(same as first chorus)
Baby's comin' back
Baby's comin' back
so I'm on my best behavior
I can't take it anymore
I just woke up on the floor today                       c-g-a-e-c-b (descending)
I've long run out of my last chances but she's on her way
A min                                                        G maj        D maj
What I told her on the telephone was that I'd been so bad
A min                                                           D maj     G maj
I wouldn't blame her if she mowed down these wild oats I'd sown
F maj                                         Bb7
But when she said she give me one more chance
G maj G maj G maj
I said knock three times when you arive

This transcription is from the acoustic version that Jellyfish plays.
It will also work on the album version. Sometimes they play it with a
capo on the first fret in which case you'd just move all the chords up
a fret. Also, the chord names on the bridge are an approximation, but the
actual chords are the way that Jellyfish plays them.
The main ryhthm toggles back and forth between the C maj and
C sus4 chords using your pinkie.
C maj      C sus4
I knew that when I saw her
that my life would move over from the fast lane

left nothin' else to be debated
