Verse 1: DGA Baby, you've got the sort of hands to rip me apart DGA And baby, you've got the sort of face to start this old heart DGA But your eyes are warning me this early morning DGA That my love's too big for you my love
Verse 2 (same as before): Baby, you've got the sort of laugh that waters me And makes me grow tall and strong and proud and flattens me I find you stunning, but you are running me down My love's too big for you my love My love's too big for you my love
Chorus: GBmGA And if I was stronger then I would tell you no GBmGA And if I was stronger then I will leave this show GBmGA And if I was stronger then I would up and go GDEmA But here I am and here we go again
Baby, you've got the sort of eyes that tell me tales That your sort of mouth just will not say, the truth impales That you don't need me, but you won't leave me My loves too big for you my love My loves too big for you my love
And if I was stronger then I would tell you no And if I was stronger then I will leave this show And if I was stronger then I would up and go But here I am and here we go again
EmDG (last time) Tell me what to do, to take away the you
And if I was stronger then I would tell you no. And if I was stronger then I will leave this show And if I was stronger then I would up and go But here I am and here we go again
