[Intro] C D Em ; C D Em
C D Em C D G
Love will abide, take things in stride
C B7 Em
Sounds like good advice but
A7 D
there's no one at my side
C D Em C D G
And time washes clean love's wounds unseen
C B7 Em
That's what someone told me but I
A7 D
don't know what it means.
[Chorus] C G
Cause I've done everything I know
B7 Em C
to try and make you mine
G D Em C G D G
And I think I'm gonna love you for a long long time
C D Em C D Em
C D Em C D G
Caught in my fears Blinking back the tears
C B7 Em
I can't say you hurt me when
A7 D
you never let me near
C D Em C D G
And I never drew one response from you
C B7 Em
All the while you fell all
A7 D
over girls you never knew
[Chorus] C G
Cause I've done everything I know
B7 Em C
to try and make you mine
G D Em C G D G
And I think it's going to hurt me for a long long time
C D Em C D G
Wait for the day You'll go away
C B7 Em
Knowing that you warned me of
A7 D
the price I'd have to pay
C D Em C D G
And life's full of flaws Who knows the cause?
C B7 Em A7 D
Living in the memory of a love that never was
[Chorus] C G
Cause I've done everything I know
B7 Em C
to try and make your mind
G D Em C G D G
And I think I'm gonna miss you for a long long time
(sung higher)
C G B7
Cause I've done everything I know
Em C
to try and make you mine
G D Em C G D G
And I think I'm gonna love you for a long long time
C D Em C D G
