[Verse 1]
Em G
Two weeks in a Virginia jail
D A
For my lover, for my lover
Em G
Twenty thousand dollar bail
D A
For my lover, for my lover
[Chorus]
C Aadd9
And everybody thinks.. I'm the fool
D C
They don't get.. any love from you
Em Aadd9
Things we won't do for love
Em
I'd climb a mountain if I had to,
G
Risk my life so I could have you
D Cmaj7
you you you you, you you you you you
[Verse 2]
Em G
Everyday I'm psychoanalyzed
D A
For my lover, for my lover
Em G
They Dope me up and I tell them lies
D A
For my lover, for my lover
[Chorus]
C Aadd9
And everybody thinks.. I'm the fool
D C
They don't get.. any love from you
Em Aadd9
Things we won't do for love
Em
I'd climb a mountain if I had to,
G
Risk my life so I could have you
D Cmaj7
you you you you, you you you you you
[Bridge]
Cmaj7 Em
I follow my heart.. and leave my head to ponder
D Cmaj7
Deep in this love.. no man can shake.
Cmaj7 Em
I follow my heart.. and leave my mind to wonder,
D Cmaj7
is this love worth.. the sacrifices I make?
