I Used To Say "I Love You" - Robyn Hitchcock
[Intro]
D A G A
D A G
[Verse]
A D A G
I used to say "I love you"
A G A G
It wasn't really true
A D A G
I wanted to believe it
A G A G
And now I almost do
A D A G
I used to say "I love you"
A G A G
I said it as a threat
A D A G
Or maybe as a promise
A G A G
To see what I could get
[Chorus]
A D Dmaj7 C G
But my heart doesn't break anymore
D Dmaj7 C G
No my heart doesn't ache anymore
Em D C
'Cause it just couldn't take anymore
D F#m G E7
And I've lost my illusions about you now
A Asus4 A Asus2
[Verse]
D A G
I used to say "I love you"
A G A G
It wasn't what I meant
A D A G
What I really meant was
A G A G
"Come on in my tent"
A D A G
But you were reluctant
A G A G
Although I was so hot
A D A G
Now I understand it
A G A G
But back then I did not
[Chorus]
A D Dmaj7 C G
But my heart doesn't wear anymore
D Dmaj7 C G
No my heart doesn't care anymore
Em D C
'Cause my heart isn't there anymore
D F#m G E7
And I've lost my illusions about you now
A Asus4 A Asus2 Asus4 Asus4 A Asus2
[Verse]
D A G
And now if I should see you
A G A G
Or call you on the phone (mm-hmm)
A D A G
I wonder who's that person
A G A G
I could never call my own
A D A G
Although I kind of like you
A G A G
I'll never understand
A D A G
Why I got so excited
A G A G
Each time that we held hands
[Chorus]
D Dmaj7 C G
'Cause my heart doesn't feel anymore
D Dmaj7 C G
No my heart doesn't wheel anymore
Em D C
'Cause it just isn't real anymore
D F#m G E7
And I've lost my illusions about you now
