Lyrics

(D)I

(F#m)wish I did n’t (Em7)love (A7)you (D7)so.

My love for (Bm)you

(E7)should have fad ed (A7)long a go.

(D)I

(F#m)wish I did n’t (Em7)need (A7)your (D7)kiss.

Why must your (Bm)kiss

(E7)tor ture me as (A7)long as this?

I might be (B7)smil

ing by now

with some new

ten der friend,

(F#7)smil

ing by now

with my heart

on the mend.

But (D#7)when I (D)try,

(F#m)some thing in my (Em7)heart (A7)says (D7)“no.”

You’re still there.

I

(E7)wish I did n’t (A7)love you so.

(D)I

(F#m)wish I did n’t (Em7)love (A7)you (D7)so.

My love for (Bm)you

(E7)should have fad ed (A7)long a go.

(D)I

(F#m)wish I did n’t (Em7)need (A7)your (D7)kiss.

Why must your (Bm)kiss

(E7)tor ture me as (A7)long as this?

I might be (B7)smil

ing by now

with some new

ten der friend,

(F#7)smil ing by now

with my heart

on the mend.

But (D#7)when I (D)try,

(F#m)some thing in my (Em7)heart (A7)says (D7)“no.”

You’re still there.

I

(E7)wish I did n’t (A7)love you so.
