Biography:
Not long ago, Steve Grand was a little-known singer-songwriter from a Chicago suburb. But that all changed July 2, 2013, when his self-funded music video, “All-American Boy,” posted to YouTube. It went viral instantly, accumulating more than 1.5 million views in the first two weeks, and more than 3.1 million views as of July 2014.
Within days, Steve landed on “Good Morning America,” CNN and other national media -- hailed as a “viral sensation” and one of America’s “first openly gay country stars

Here are the chords to 'Say You Love Me' by Steve Grand. I really like this song
especially its relatable lyrical content! It's one of my favourites in his album
'All-American Boy'! If you want less barre chords, you can also play this song by
transposing this tab -5 and putting a capo on fret 5! Also the G#5 chord in the
bridge is completely optional if you don't want to play it but that chromatically rising
baseline is present during the actual song. I recommend, when you get up to that part, playing
the barre chord G on the 3rd fret then sliding up to the G#5 then sliding up to the barre chord
Am on the 5th fret. Just play along with the song and you'll get it! The C/B is optional as well!
Have fun playing :)

[INTRO]
F C Am G (x2)
[VERSE 1]
F C
"Close the door," he says
Am
"This'll only be a minute"
G
But sometimes minutes can get caught in suspension
F C
I finally figured it out
Am
And you're that someone who knows a little more
G
Than something about me
F C
He says, "I met this girl out in Palm Springs
Am G
Man, she's the best! You'd be so happy for me!"
F C
And it hits me hard
Am
Seeing this blue-eyed dream sprouting wings
G F
And flying away from me
C Am G
Flying away from me, yeah
[CHORUS]
F C
What if I say you love me?
Am G
Could I make it true?
F C
We could build us something
Am G
That would mean something to you
F C
'Cause when I close my eyes
Am
I'm in this world where you don't have a girl
G
And I'm right by your side
F C
Say you love me
Am G F
It don't mean that I'll ever have you
C Am G
Ohhhhh no
[VERSE 2]
F C
So we're driving home
Am
I look out at the rain on the roads out my
G
Passenger window
F C
It's been one of those nights
Am
It all feels so alive
G
Man, you bet, I'm gonna to hate saying goodbye
F C
He pulls up on my driveway
Am
Says, "See you on Friday"
G
If he only knew what I'd do to be
F
The rain on his coat
C
Those keys that he holds
D G
Or the one he has waiting back home
[CHORUS]
F C
What if I say you love me?
Am G
Could I make it true?

[BRIDGE]
C
I'm not gonna lie
G Am
A stubborn part of me keeps the hope alive

So to keep from losing my best friend
Bb F G
I hold it all inside
