Words & Music by Emerson Hart

Capo I (All chords relative to capo)
CHORUS:
Am C
If you could only see the way she loves me,
G G/F G Am
Then maybe you would understand, why I feel this way
C G G/F
About our love, and what I must do
G Am C
If you could only see how blue her eyes can be,
G G/F
When she says, when she says she loves me.(Em before interlude & solo)
Am E G(barre) F(barre) F D11(no C)
Well you got your reasons, and you've got your lies
G5/A5 G5/A5 G5/A5 G5/A5 F D11(no C)
And you got your manipulations, they cut me down to size
BRIDGE 1
Am C
Sayin' you love but you don't,
G G (strum & hold)
You give your heart but you won't (back to chorus)
VERSE 2
G5/A5 G5/A5 G5/A5 G5/A5 F D11(no C)
Seems the road less traveled, shows happiness unraveled
G5/A5 G5/A5 G5/A5 G5/A5 F
And you got to take a little dirt to keep what you love
D11(no C)
That's what you gotta do
BRIDGE 2
Am C
Sayin' you love but you don't, You give me your love
G G/F
but you won't, You're stretching out your arms to something
G
that's just not there,
Am C
Sayin' you love where you stand,
G G (strum & hold)
Give your heart when you can (back to chorus, then interlude & solo)
INTERLUDE & SOLO
E F G(barre) Am(barre) C G G/F
Sayin' you love but you don't, you give your love but you won't
Am C G G/F
Sayin' you love where you stand, give your heart when you can
(Back to chorus one more time, end by strumming & holding G/F)

Improvising by playing an Am scale (6th pos easiest) will work for the
solo.
