G2 C2 Am7 G2
If I loved you . life would be easy
G2 C2 Am7 G2
There'd be no truth . that I'd be scared of
G2 C2 Am7 G2
I could walk through . every valley
G2 C2 Am7 G2
And you'd light me . with all of your love
G2 Em7 C2 G2
But I don't love you, . not like I want to
G2 Em7 C2 G2
I don't love you . and that makes it hard
G2 Em7 C2 G2
And every morning . I see how you watch me
G2 Em7 C2 G2
And each night I know you feel it and it just breaks your heart
| G2 Em7 | C2 G2 | G2 Em7 | C2 G2 |
G2 C2 Am7 G2
You'd make good money . and come home early
G2 C2 Am7 G2
And you'd kiss me . and hold me each night
G2 C2 Am7 G2
We would have children . and they would be so beautiful
G2 C2 Am7 G2
And we'd raise them . and all would be right
G2 Em7 C2 G2
But I don't love you, . not like you need it
G2 Em7 C2 G2
I don't love you, . good as you are
G2 Em7 C2 G2
And when I kiss you, . I know that you can feel it
G2 Em7 C2 G2
And I see it in your eyes and it just breaks my heart
C2 D
. I wish to God I could change it, darling
G2 D/F# |C2 |
Could make you the one
C2 D
. I will always have these regrets and wonder
G2 D/F# |C2 |D | D |
What else I could have done, I will
G2 C2 Am7 G2
'Cause if I loved you . I could be happy
G2 C2 Am7 G2
I would make you . the light of my world
G2 C2 Am7 G2
I wouldn't wait love, . I'd marry you tomorrow
G2 C2 Am7 |G2 | G2
And we'd make love . and I'd be your girl . . .
|G2 Em7 C2 G2
But I don't love you, . much as I want to
G2 Em7 C2 G2
I don't love you, no, it would be a lie
G2 Em7 C2 G2
And you deserve love, . you're better than a good day
G2 Em7 C2 G2
And you'll find it, . but just not in my eyes
G2 Em7 C2 G2
'Cause it ain't here love, no, no - no oh
G2 Em7 C2 G2
It ain't here love, no no, no, no no
G2 Em7 C2 G2
It ain't here love, no, no, no, no, no
G2 Em7 C2 G2
It ain't here love, . and it just breaks my heart
