[Chorus]
E A E
I've got a yearning to hold you tight
E A E B7
A burning desire I live with day and night
E A E
Everything I wanna lose keeps on hanging on
A B7 E
This feeling isn't leaving and by now it should be gone
E A E A E B7 E
I keep on thinking those thoughts that keep making me want you all the time
E A E A E B7 E
I should be trying to find me a way I can drive you from my mind
E A E A E B7
I know that you wanted to give and I know that you gave all you could
E A E B7 E
Wish I could accept what is over and done with for good
[Chorus] x3
E A E
I've got a yearning to hold you tight
E A E B7
A burning desire I live with day and night
E A E
Everything I wanna lose keeps on hanging on
A B7 E
This feeling isn't leaving and by now it should be gone
