Lyrics

(I can’t (F)stop (Bb)lov ing you),

I’ve made up my mind,

to (F6)live in me mo ries

of the lone some (F)time.

(I can’t (F)stop (Bb)want ing you).

it’s use less to (F)say,

so (F6)I’ll just (C7)live my life

in dreams of (C7)yes ter days.

Those hap py (F)hours

that we once (Bb)knew,

though long a go

they still make me blue.

They say that (F)time

heals a bro ken heart,

but time has stood (F)still,

since we’ve been a (F)part.

(I can’t (F)stop (Bb)lov ing you),

I’ve made up my mind,

to (F6)live in me mo ries

of the lone some (F)time.

(I can’t (F)stop (Bb)want ing you).

It’s use less to (F)say,

so (F6)I’ll just (C7)live my life

in dreams of (C7)yes ter days.

(Those hap py (F)hours

that we once (Bb)knew,

heals a bro ken (Bb)heart,

but time has stood (F)still

since we’ve been a (Bb)part.

I can’t (F)stop (Bb)lov ing you),

I said I’ve made up my mind

(I can’t (F)stop (Bb)want ing you).

It’s use less to (F)say,

Perfect for singers, lead instruments, and ensemble practice.
